An epic spanning more than half a century of Taiwan's history, this breathtaking historical novel traces the
fortunes of the Pengs, a family of Hakka Chinese settlers, across three generations from the 1890s, just before
Taiwan was ceded to Japan as a result of the Sino-Japanese war, through World War II. Li Qiao brilliantly re-creates the dramatic world of these pioneers -- and the colonization of Taiwan itself -- exploring their relationships with the aboriginal peoples of Taiwan and their struggle to establish their own ethnic and
political identities.
This edition is an abridgement for English-speaking readers and marks the work's first appearance in the
English-speaking world. An introduction explaining the cultural and historical background of the novel is included to help orient the reader to this amazingly rich cultural context.
