Dreams of Joy by Lisa See
5.0

Beautifully picks up where Shanghai Girls left off. The pacing is just as swift and the voices and setting feel vivid and genuine. See's ability to integrate her research in a really effortless way is magic. My only complaint is that the character of May has little to no voice in this piece. I semi-understand why; it's a mother daughter story, but that omission seems glaring.
