Sweet Mandarin has been selected by Barnes and Noble as one of the
Top 8 "Discover Great New Writers Selections Fall 2008".
"Sweet Mandarin is a banquet of family stories that take us from a small Chinese village to cosmopolitan Hong Kong and urban Manchester. Along the way, the ingredients of special dishes and a rich life are added: a homemade stock of hard life, a pound of tragedy, a spoonful of daring, a dash of curses, and dollop after dollop of sheer will. This is a family memoir of survival and victories, luck and determination, and perpetual mounds of dirty dishes waiting to be washed. " Amy Tan
"Read this book. It is the story of an amazing family and their sweet and sour, hot and bitter lives"
Xinran, author of The Good Women of China.
