Summary
"Through the life of a remarkable woman--based on pioneering stage director Sun Weishi (1921-1968)--this epic novel immerses us in the multifaceted history of China's Communist Party. Sun Weishi was educated in Moscow and when she returned to China she produced the works of Chekov, Gogol, and other socially progressive dramas. However, when the cultural revolution began in 1966, she was persecuted, arrested, and eventually died in prison."--, Provided by publisher
