Following her internationally bestselling book The Good Women of
China, Xinran has written one of the most powerful accounts of the
lives of Chinese women. She has gained entrance to the most pained,
secret chambers in the hearts of Chinese mothers--students,
successful businesswomen, midwives, peasants--who, whether as a
consequence of the single-child policy, destructive age-old
traditions, or hideous economic necessity, have given up their
daughters. Xinran beautifully portrays the "extra-birth guerrillas"
who travel the roads and the railways, evading the system, trying
to hold on to more than one baby; naive young girl students who
have made life-wrecking mistakes; the "pebble mother" on the banks
of the Yangtze River still looking into the depths for her stolen
daughter; peasant women rejected by their families because they
can't produce a male heir; and Little Snow, the orphaned baby
fostered by Xinran but confiscated by the state.
For parents of adopted Chinese children and for the children
themselves, this is an indispensable, powerful, and intensely
moving book. Message from an Unknown Chinese Mother is powered by
love and by heartbreak and will stay with readers long after they
have turned the final page.
Intuitively written messages to bring a sense of peace, love and
joy. They can be used for daily guidance or whenever you feel the
need for some inspiration to help you walk the path of life.
Whether the message is for yourself or for you to bring a piece of
love and comfort to someone else, know that divine guidance from
God and the angels will be with you. May your day be filled with
love and blessings. Jenny x
This is a collection of poetry, prose and visual art that keeps
body, mind and spirit together, a rich summation of ideas, thoughts
and philosophy. Their common theme is a respect for life and an
affinity with what endures throughout the years, bringing an
empathetic solace and strength in time of need - with a "Diary of
an Edwardian Lady" look and feel about it.
It is illustrated in a fresh and modern way with a touch of
abstract and so should appeal to a wider audience. With hints of
social and human psychology, spirituality combinded with creativity
- it just scratches each issue on the surface. The book doesn't
impose any strong views or lengthy "deep" writing to bore, but is
says enough - acting as a catalyst to encourage deeper thought,
reflection and discussion. "Themes Of Life.... A simple but
Spiritual, Creative and Psychological approach to tackling some key
issues which we face, In Human relationships & in Society
today"

all.

a way to a calmer, more fulfilling life.
