Title: A bittersweet portrayal of a chinese family's life
Review: I had to read this book for my anthropology class, Women and Modernity in Asia, and I was pleasantly surprised. The issues described in this book, ranging from arranged marriages to concubines and the struggle between tradition and modernity, are told through the perspective of the youngest Kao son. One cannot help by empathize with the characters and their tragic fates.
