"would've gotten 5 stars, but don't consider this a book. it's a play. good play. would actually like to see it acted out too. brings out the more superstitious side of being chinese. takes place in the late 19th century or early 20th. east meets west type thing. which side wins? you'll find out for yourself. father works in the west and is exposed to different cultures. daughter has bound feet and three wives. does this change? how does his exposure to the west change his views and behavior? read the book to find out."
