It is 1969 and China is in the throes of the Cultural Revolution.
The Taos face exile with stoicism and teach their son to embrace
reeducation wholeheartedly. Is this simple pragmatism, an attempt
to protect the boy and ensure his future? Or do the banished cadres
really cling to their belief in their leaders and the ideals of the
Revolution? These questions remain tantalizingly unanswered in this
prize-winning first novel.
