Title: Shanghai Girl
Review: I have just finished reading Vivian Yang's, Shanghai Girl, and am amazed that it is the first novel of a young woman for whom English is a second language! Her use of idioms and slang are remarkable. She also has an excellent grasp of life, customs and politics in America. It is a very good read which opens the eyes of its readers to the incredible struggle that immigrants to our country must face when they leave their homelands to seek "a better life". My hat is off to all those whose intelligence, determination and drive lead them to the realization of their dream -- and this includes Sha-fei AND Vivian Yang!
