About this product

Product Information

This new translation of the autobiography of Xie Bingying (1906-2000)-an important Chinese feminist, pioneering "girl soldier," and skilled writer-provides a fascinating portrayal of a woman fighting to free herself from the constraints of ancient Chinese tradition in the context of the dramatic changes that shook China during the 1920s, '30s, and '40s. Her personal struggle to define herself within the larger context of political change is a poignant testament of determination and a striking story of one woman's journey from Old China into the new world.

Reviews
"Xie's decades of political engagement [were]... full of social and personal experiments, of individual stories worked out in the interstices of big and visible events, of people negotiating daily life without knowing how the political story would end. Xie's autobiography is a precious glimpse into that vanished world of revolutionary uncertainty." -- Women's Review of Books, Xie's decades of political engagement [were]... full of social and personal experiments, of individual stories worked out in the interstices of big and visible events, of people negotiating daily life without knowing how the political story would end. Xie's autobiography is a precious glimpse into that vanished world of revolutionary uncertainty.
