Wild Swans: Three Daughters of China by Jung Chang

5.0

It's been quite a while since a book has impacted me as this one has. It is brilliantly written - and read by Pik-Sen Lim on the audiobook I listened to - to create a compelling narrative of true events. I can't imagine there's a single better book to read to get an understanding of 20th Century China, and the effects that Chairman Mao had on the country, though I can't wait to read the biography that Jung Chang has written on Mao himself.
