Synopsis
Anchee Min, "raised on the teachings of Mao", worked at a hopelessly infertile communal farm. This toil for no apparent reason caused her to question her upbringing and devotion to Mao; when she traveled to Beijing to audition for the part of Red Azalea in one of Madame Mao's propagandistic productions, she became completely disillusioned with Maoist doctrine.

Publisher's Note
Anchee Min's remarkable story reveals both the brutality of oppression and the incredible resilience of the human spirit. A journey of passion and danger, luck and betrayal, told in spare, elegant prose that Newsweek calls "as delicate and evocative as a traditional Chinese brush painting. From the author of Katherine. National ads/media.

Industry Reviews
"In this moving study of disillusionment, Min writes without personal rancor, but with anger at ill-conceived enterprises and doctrinal disputes that have wasted so many lives in modern China."
Los Angeles Times Book Review - Charles S. Solomon (06/02/1995)
