The story of a family panning across three generations and continents through war ravaged China, Mao's China and progressing on wards till the modern day with a climax at Tiananman Square the book has been written in a free flow style with the write drifting with ease from the present across decades yet never going offtrack. Another brilliance of the writer's mesmerizing style is through the use of music compositions and the lives of composers and musicians. The book has multiple characters yet all orchestrated through hardships into a nicely knitted story. The book is a very intelligent work and surely is a must read. In a scale of 20 we give it a 19.5.
