May Book Club Pick Daughters of Shandong

In 1948 China, as civil war ravages the countryside, the wealthy Angs grapple with their lack of a male heir. With the Communist army closing in, it’s up to Hai (the eldest of the four daughters) to stand trial for her family’s crimes. Barely surviving the brutality and realizing the worst is yet to come, they decide to flee and embark on a thousand-mile journey to confront the family that abandoned them. This was an incredible story—touching and heartbreaking at the same time. It combined the difficulties of motherhood in imperial China and the resilience of women in war. This book is everything you need and want from historical fiction.
