Egg on Mao

Praise for Egg on Mao:

“Extraordinary . . . useful, timely and devastating . . . as insightful about everyday China as anything I have read. . . . A coming of age memoir, a suspenseful action tale and a prison documentary—all of them handled with astonishing adroitness.” —John Fraser, Literary Review of Canada

“Chong is a masterful storyteller. . . . Egg on Mao is a lovely and fascinating look at not only China, but also the power of friendship and human decency.” —Quill & Quire
 
“Egg on Mao speaks the universal language of human rights.” —The Daily News

“Exquisite. . . . This is a gem of a book, strong in its treatment of substance, superb in its expression.” —Winnipeg Free Press

Praise for The Concubine’s Children:

“Beautiful, haunting and wise, [The Concubine’s Children] lingers in the mind like a portrait one returns to in a family album, and elicits the same mysterious response of love, melancholy and pride.” —The New York Times Book Review
