Bestselling Chinese American author Adeline Yen Mah weaves her
authentic accounts of life in China into an absorbing novel about a
Chinese girl and her vision of a previous life.
After a fall, CC is whisked away to a hospital. As she drifts in
and out of consciousness, she is haunted by vivid dreams that seem
strange--yet somehow familiar. Thus begins CC's emotional journey
back to a privileged life lived eight hundred years ago during the
Song dynasty.
CC is the daughter of a wealthy and influential man, but she finds
herself drawn to a poor orphan boy with a startling ability to
capture the beauty of the natural world. As the relationship
between these two young people deepens, the transforming power of
art and romantic love comes into conflict with the immovable rules
of Chinese society.
This stunning fantasy adventure novel, inspired by China's most
famous painting, "Along the River at the Qing Ming Festival," tells
the story of a friendship both tender and bold. CC's remarkable
journey reminds readers that though time moves on, art and love
endure.
"From the Hardcover edition."
