NY Times calls this the "Chinese Gone with the Wind". "Warrior and healer, concubine and spy, Rulan is a remarkable heroine. Her story, inspired by Linda Ching Sledge's years of research into her own family history, is told within a rich and vibrant portrait of China in a rebellious age. This is that rare and beautiful novel that totally immerses the reader in its world." Prequel to "A Map of Paradise" which continues the story of Rulan and Pao An in Hawaii.
