Book Reviews of The Concubine's Children
Book Review: A Captivating Read
Summary: 5 Stars
I may be a white, teenaged, american male, but I still can appreciate the value and hard work that went into this book.This book was absolutely wonderful in that it covered the family history so well, leaving out very few details, even though it was all put together by word of mouth, letters and photographs!
This must have been an extremely difficult book to write for all parties involved, and for that the author and her relatives have my deepest respect.
This book is absolutely beautiful and represents Chinese culture very clearly and in an interesting manner. I would recommend this book to ANYBODY
