Bittersweet
Leslie Li
A compelling first novel about love, war, family and one woman's life of great hardship and even greater triumph. From the last days of the warlords to the tragedy at Tiananmen Square, it is the 100-year odyssey of Bittersweet, a headstrong peasant woman who rises from poverty and endures abandonment, patriarchy and revolution as the wife of the second most powerful man in China. This gripping story was inspired by the lives of the author's grandfather, the first democratically elected Vice President of China and subsequently Acting President, and her grandmother, a woman you won't soon forget.
