Hi Lisa, I've been fan since Gold Mountain and that is my favorite book! I've been living in south China for the past five years as an American born Chinese. I like your impression and opinion of the Chinese people today of how their social behavior within all different economic groups from poor to rich from family values, foreign influences, and is the "social" gap widening between men and women of this country? ty!

Lisa See I'm so embarrassed that it's taken me so long to write back, especially when you have written such beautiful words about my work. I'm deeply grateful and humbled.

Since you're living in South China, you have seen for yourself how the social and economic gap is widening. It's huge! What do you think will happen?

Just got Lady Tan's Circle of Women. Wonderful book. Thanks for giving me more reading pleasure. Did she set a precedent, that women of a certain class could be more doctor than mid-wife or was this just a one-time event?
