Xinran's stories are beautifully written, even if they are heart wrenching. I've met many young girls adopted from orphanages in China. I'm glad that Xinran has documented part of the history of the women whose daughters were brought to these orphanages. I hope that life for women improves in China, and that mothers will have enough political and social support and the financial stability to raise their daughters in a nurturing environment.
