Daughters of Yangtze

By Chun Xiao Bleau

Two sisters, Mingyan and Shuyan, grow up together in the shadow of the Japanese invasion, only to be separated by revolution and the authoritarian rule of Mao's China-each navigating life, love, and loss on opposite sides of the border.

Mingyan flees to Hong Kong and builds a new life; yet she never stops searching for the family she left behind. Shuyan remains on the mainland, quietly enduring the upheavals imposed by Mao's dictatorship, while raising a daughter who knows nothing of her own history.

Spanning four decades-from a quiet town near the Yangtze River to the capital city of Beijing and the glittering streets of Hong Kong-they carry the weight of what was lost, and the fragile hope of what might still be found.
