Empress Dowager Cixi: The Concubine Who Launched Modern China by Jung Chang

Did not finish book. Stopped at 15%.

DNFd; as soon as we got into part two we started going crazy. The historical accuracy here is,,,, suspect and the tone is very weird. The last whole chapter has just been "Cixi was so cool and #femminist and so much cooler than every man in China because she believed the West was So Cool and loved them and made everything in China Western like it should be."

And regardless of the truthfulness of that statement the tone is so "girls rule boys drool"
