This series confronts the fears many women have feared in the past and still fear today. Facing a possible reality of the removal of rights to reproduction and anonymity the women of this future thought it was all but a joke. Suddenly a fundamentalist government takes power and dictates the lives of the women who are "blessed" enough to still be fertile. I recommend this series to all women and men who might not understand the fears other women have about having reproductive choices being removed as a personal choice but still have an open mind to hear those fears.

An unflinching view of the lives of Chinese women in communist China. (0 more)
Eye opening
Xinran was a radio journalist in China who collected the stories of women who had stories to tell. This is a side of China that we don't really hear of: women who had lived through the cultural revolution and the damage it had inflicted on their lives. How women were still pretty much regarded as chattel, homosexuality was a criminal offence, women were sexually coerced, raped and unwillingly married off to high standing officials. This is just a small selection of the lives of women in these stories. You can hear the voices of these women as though they're in the room with you. The stories are often heartbreaking. I'm so glad I picked this book up - and all because the authors name began with an X (for an alphabet reading challenge!!).
