When I wrote, I forgot that I was an unwanted daughter who had caused her mother's death.
It thrilled me to be able to escape the horrors of my daily life in such a simple way. Here's a paragraph that stuck out to me about her love for writing: Yen Mah crafts her tale in a way that makes it unique yet relatable all at once, maintaining her Chinese culture while connecting readers to her journey. Her story, while similar to ones we've all heard before, reveals the resilience of humankind in the face of tremendous struggle. In this simple yet beautifully-narrated memoir, Adeline Yen Mah shares how she grew up as an unwanted child in a cruel and wealthy family.
Chinese Cinderella proves that you don't need to write like Virginia Woolf or produce the next "Great American Novel" to create a work of art.
