The Immoderate Temper of Mrs. Chen's Daughter

The Immoderate Temper of Mrs. Chen's Daughter is the story of a woman who knows how to use a cleaver. It is an exploration of the Chinese proverb "To hit is to kiss, to curse is to love." It is a tale of China and Jews, of passion and politics, of revolution and mahjong. The author has traveled extensively in China. In this novel he writes of a time when Chinese history and Jewish history collide in the Shanghai Ghetto. One reader called it a cross between Portnoy's Complaint and Kill Bill. If you enjoyed The Good Earth, Wild Swans, The Tin Drum, or the Painted Bird, this book belongs on your reading list.A word from the author: If you read and enjoyed this book, please consider posting a review. Your review can really make a difference in bringing this book to a wider audience. Thanks!
