    Wild Swans: Three Daughters of China by Jung Chang.

    It's an autobiographical history which recounts the lives of the author, her mother, and her grandmother throughout an extremely transformational century in Chinese history.

    I went into this knowing little to no Chinese history, and it has opened my eyes to this fascinating country. I hope to visit China for the first time in 2027. Before I go, I'm doing a deep dive into Chinese history. Open to recommendations on what to read next!

      I read a comic book series that sounds somewhat similar, history in generations. &quot;My China&quot; <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.goodreads.com&#x2F;series&#x2F;74422-une-vie-chinoise" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.goodreads.com&#x2F;series&#x2F;74422-une-vie-chinoise
