Book Review of Women of the Silk

Women of the Silk
reviewed on + 166 more book reviews


Reviewers loved this tale of a young Chinese girl who must leave her family to work in the silk factories, finding both 'family' and a meaning for her life in the women she joins there. The San Francisco Chronicle called it, "one of the loveliest first novels published this year."
