Yong Hon Loon, author
Adult; General Fiction (including literary and historical); (Market)
The book is a uniquely insightful and critical account of an enduring people who had their own language, grew rice, had legends of dragons, built a long wall that walled them in, made paper, silk and porcelain, sought the elixir of life, and whose women bound their feet - as witnessed through the nostalgic, erotic and personal journey of a family torn forever apart by inexorable historical changes and events.
