Eileen Chang is recognized as one of the greatest modern Chinese writers who would have been 90 years old in 2010. "The Book of Change" tells the story of a girl in her late teens who ran away from her opium addict father's Shanghai mansion after she has a fight with her step-mother. She ends up in her mother's who plans to send her to study in the UK, but she lands in Hong Kong as the war intervened in her fate. This semi-autobiographical novel is preceded by "The Fall of the Pagoda," both originally written in English, and concludes in "A Small Reunion," originally in Chinese. In Chinese. Distributed by Tsai Fong Books, Inc.
