Title: A journey in time
Product review: I read this book as I travelled through from Japan to China and through China to Mongolia. I didn't really see a great deal of China and felt that I learnt a lot more from the pages of WILD SWANS. From the first numbing pages that describe the barbarous practice of foot-binding and thoughout the book's long history that spans a century and three female generations, I was hooked and blinded to life outside WILD SWANS. I was wholly absorbed and felt for once that I was being educated at the same time. This is a book for lovers of fiction who feel they should know more about history. A brilliant, moving gritty, chilling saga all the better for being true, and also an enlightening treatise on a century of Chinese Socio-political history.
