Miss Chopsticks

English · Paperback

Description

Klappentext The Li sisters don't have much education! but one thing has been drummed into them: their mother is a failure because she hasn't managed to produce a son. Women! their father tells them! are like chopsticks: utilitarian and easily broken. Yet when circumstances lead the sisters to seek work in distant Nanjing! the shocking new urban environment opens their eyes. And when the money they earn starts arriving back at the village! their father is forced to recognise that daughters are not so dispensable after all.
