A review by ar_ya
Daughters of the Dragon by William Andrews

5.0

Really traumatising and gripping read. Got swept off into the world. Somewhat similar to "Thousand Splendid Suns" and "Joy luck club". Was able to truly understand Korean history. It's shocking to learn about the comfort women. I haven't heard about their history or the history of Korea much. I'm grateful to Preeti Shenoy for this suggestion, without which I wouldn't have known about this book. It deeply touched my heart. Big salute to the surviving comfort women. I didn't expect the last twist. The two-headed dragon comb with the five toes, passing on to women. Jae-hee is a descendant of the Empress of Korea. Such strong female characters. I would recommend it to everyone.
