first time read Lisa See's work. I read/heard/saw the happiness/sorrow/pain/struggle of asian americians, but the story sounds unreal.
評分1/5棄。Lisa See的書也就那兩本好看,其他的都挺一般的。這一點上跟東野圭吾很像。如果能夠更強調【二戰大背景】和美國三四十年代【排華】這兩個大背景的話可能會好很多。但是這本書沉醉於什麼毫無邏輯的姐妹撕逼/情深,真的很無趣。2.5星。
評分作為畢業翻譯項目的文本纔閱讀的本書,不過作者構思情節及語言錶達能力真的。。。
評分三四十年代美國華裔的故事 國仇傢恨姐妹情深有燈紅酒綠有溫情有陰謀有東西方麵孔 顯然是要拍到大熒幕上的節奏

Lisa See is an American writer and novelist. Her books include On Gold Mountain: The One-Hundred-Year Odyssey of My Chinese-American Family (1995), a detailed account of See's family history, and the novels Flower Net (1997), The Interior (1999), Dragon Bones (2003), Snow Flower and the Secret Fan (2005), Peony in Love (2007) and Shanghai Girls (2009), which made it to the 2010 New York Times bestseller list. Both Shanghai Girls and Snow Flower and the Secret Fan received honorable mentions from the Asian/Pacific American Awards for Literature. Flower Net, The Interior, and Dragon Bones make up the Red Princess mystery series. Snow Flower and the Secret Fan and Peony in Love focus on the lives of Chinese women in the 19th and 17th centuries respectively. Shanghai Girls (2009) chronicles the lives of two sisters who come to Los Angeles in arranged marriages and face, among other things, the pressures put on Chinese-Americans during the anti-Communist mania of the 1950s. See completed a sequel titled Dreams of Joy, released in May 2011. China Dolls (June 2014) deals with Chinese American nightclub performers of the 1930s and 1940s. Her latest novel is The Tea Girl of Hummingbird Lane (2017). Writing under the pen name Monica Highland, See, her mother Carolyn See, and John Espey, published three novels: Lotus Land (1983), 110 Shanghai Road (1986), and Greetings from Southern California (1988). She has a personal essay ("The Funeral Banquet") included in the anthology Half and Half. See has donated her personal papers (1973–2001) to UCLA. During the 2012 Golden Dragon Chinese New Year Parade in Los Angeles Chinatown, See served as the Grand Marshal.
China Dolls is a 2014 novel by Lisa See. It depicts the largely forgotten world of Chinese American nightclubs and performers of the '30s and '40s. The book opens with a quotation attributed to Buddha: “Only three things cannot be long hidden: the sun, the moon, and the truth.” See organizes her narrative around these three elements – The Sun (October 1938 – August 1940; The Moon (August 1940 – September 1945); and The Truth (December 1945-June 1948). The novel briefly concludes with a reunion of many of the main characters in 1988. The novel debuted at #10 on the New York Times best seller list of hardcover fiction. It led the San Francisco Chronicle's list of recommended new books June 15, 2014.
