"In a single year, my father left us twice. The first time, to end his marriage, and the second, when he took his own life. I was ten years old."

Master storyteller Madeleine Thien takes us inside an extended family in China, showing us the lives of two successive generations--those who lived through Mao's Cultural Revolution and their children, who became the students protesting in Tiananmen Square. At the center of this epic story are two young women, Marie and Ai-Ming. Through their relationship Marie strives to piece together the tale of her fractured family in present-day Vancouver, seeking answers in the fragile layers of their collective story. Her quest will unveil how Kai, her enigmatic father, a talented pianist, and Ai-Ming's father, the shy and brilliant composer, Sparrow, along with the violin prodigy Zhuli were forced to reimagine their artistic and private selves during China's political campaigns and how their fates reverberate through the years with lasting consequences.

With maturity and sophistication, humor and beauty, Thien has crafted a novel that is at once intimate and grandly political, rooted in the details of life inside China yet transcendent in its universality.

Faded Glory 😂 3.5 rating
Size: XX-Large, Color: Black-red, Size: XX-Large, Color: Black-red
Sooo faded I didn’t even want to try it on. And very dusty and ashy looking but only the red. It’s as if they had someone wear and wash it and return it and they took the red side and buttoned it onto another color and shipped it out. Guess these sellers like faded clothes. I wouldn’t buy certain colors seeing ppl talking about how the color doesn’t even last even upon its arrival. But if you have dye it’s your best bet to have some on hand when you order or even good for DIY projects. Good thing is I did try it on and it fits and feels like good quality with good weight to it. May have to go up a size I’m a female with big breast. Seems like it may last, just not the color. Good stitch work buttons seem sturdy. Yea these shirts would be great for DIY work
