Reviews
" China Dolls is [Lisa See's] most penetrating novel since Snow Flower and the Secret Fan ." The Seattle Times, "Stellar. . . The depth of See's characters and her winning prose make this book a wonderful journey." Publishers Weekly (starred review), "Fans of the best-selling Snow Flower and the Secret Fan will find much to admire in The Tea Girl of Hummingbird Lane , as both books closely illuminate stories of women's struggles and solidarity in minority-ethnic and rural Chinese cultures ... But in rendering the complex pain and joy of the mother-daughter bond, Lisa See makes this novel -- dedicated to her own mother, author Carolyn See, who died last year -- a deeply emotional and satisfying read." -- USA Today, " Shanghai Girls is much loftier than its cover art's stunning portrait of beautifully adorned Asian women…The detail is thoughtful and intricate." -Janet Maslin, New York Times, "A lush tale infused with clear-eyed compassion, this novel will inspire reflection, discussion and an overwhelming desire to drink rare Chinese tea." -- The Washington Post, "An accomplished and absorbing novel. . . [Lisa] See's skillful plotting and richly drawn characters immediately draw in the reader, covering twenty years of love, loss, heartbreak and joy." Publishers Weekly (Pick of the Week), "With this fraught, adversity-filled story set at an interesting time in history, See proves again with her meticulous research, knowledge and insights of Chinese culture that she can spin a character-rich tale that enlightens." The Miami Herald, "Stellar. . . The depth of See's characters and her winning prose make this book a wonderful journey." - Publishers Weekly (starred review), "An accomplished and absorbing novel. . . [Lisa] See's skillful plotting and richly drawn characters immediately draw in the reader, covering twenty years of love, loss, heartbreak and joy." - Publishers Weekly (Pick of the Week), "See is one of those special writers capable of delivering both poetry and plot." -- New York Times Book Review, "With vivid and precise details about tea and life in rural China, Li-Yan's gripping journey to find her daughter comes alive." -- Publishers Weekly, "With strong female characters, See deftly confronts the changing role of minority women, majority-minority relations, East-West adoption, and the economy of tea in modern China. Fans of See's Snow Flower and the Secret Fan will appreciate this novel." -- Library Journal, "A riveting, meticulously researched depiction of one of the world's worst human-engineered catastrophes." -- Kirkus Reviews, "With strong female characters, See deftly confronts the changing role of minority women, majority-minority relations, East-West adoption, and the economy of tea in modern China. Fans of See's Snow Flower and the Secret Fan will appreciate this novel." -- Library Journal, "Lisa See transports readers to the remote mountains of China...come for the heartwarming bonding between mother and daughter; stay for the insight into Akha culture and the fascinating (really) history of the tea trade." -- Real Simple, "Superb. . . This emotional, informative and brilliant page-turner resonates with resilience and humanity." The Washington Post, " Shanghai Girls is much loftier than its cover art's stunning portrait of beautifully adorned Asian women...The detail is thoughtful and intricate." --Janet Maslin, New York Times, "See masterfully weaves the intimate story of these sisters and their extended family with the larger tales of Chinese immigrants struggling to get along in an unfamiliar, often hostile land." - Arizona Daily Star, "See masterfully weaves the intimate story of these sisters and their extended family with the larger tales of Chinese immigrants struggling to get along in an unfamiliar, often hostile land." Arizona Daily Star, "A riveting, meticulously researched depiction of one of the world's worst human-engineered catastrophes." - Kirkus Reviews, "With this fraught, adversity-filled story set at an interesting time in history, See proves again with her meticulous research, knowledge and insights of Chinese culture that she can spin a character-rich tale that enlightens." - The Miami Herald, "Once again, See's research feels impeccable, and she has created an authentic, visually arresting world." - The Washington Post, "Superb. . . This emotional, informative and brilliant page-turner resonates with resilience and humanity." - The Washington Post, " Lisa See is a confident, lyrical, smart, impeccably researched writer ... [ The Tea Girl of Hummingbird Lane is] both unique and a universal story of motherhood." -- L.A. Review of Books, " China Dolls is [Lisa See's] most penetrating novel since Snow Flower and the Secret Fan ." - The Seattle Times, "Once again, See's research feels impeccable, and she has created an authentic, visually arresting world." -- The Washington Post, "An alluring escape, a satisfying and vivid fable that uses an Akha belief to tap into our own longings for coincidence." -- San Francisco Chronicle

Synopsis
A thrilling new novel from #1 New York Times bestselling author Lisa See explores the lives of a Chinese mother and her daughter who has been adopted by an American couple. Li-yan and her family align their lives around the seasons and the farming of tea. There is ritual and routine, and it has been ever thus for generations. Then one day a jeep appears at the village gate--the first automobile any of them have seen--and a stranger arrives. In this remote Yunnan village, the stranger finds the rare tea he has been seeking and a reticent Akha people. In her biggest seller, Snow Flower and the Secret Fan, See introduced the Yao people to her readers. Here she shares the customs of another Chinese ethnic minority, the Akha, whose world will soon change . Li-yan, one of the few educated girls on her mountain, translates for the stranger and is among the first to reject the rules that have shaped her existence. When she has a baby outside of wedlock, rather than stand by tradition, she wraps her daughter in a blanket, with a tea cake hidden in her swaddling, and abandons her in the nearest city. After mother and daughter have gone their separate ways, Li-yan slowly emerges from the security and insularity of her village to encounter modern life while Haley grows up a privileged and well-loved California girl. Despite Haley's happy home life, she wonders about her origins; and Li-yan longs for her lost daughter. They both search for and find answers in the tea that has shaped their family's destiny for generations. A powerful story about a family, separated by circumstances, culture, and distance, Tea Girl of Hummingbird Lane paints an unforgettable portrait of a little known region and its people and celebrates the bond that connects mothers and daughters.

The seller was very understanding and gave me a full refund for the damaged book, though it was no fault of their own. Other than the damage, the book was as described, the quality and condition aside from the damaged spot was like new. The cost of the book was reasonable. I would definitely purchase from the seller again.

The minimal packaging left the book a bit vulnerable (typical for ThriftBooks), but it did arrive safely and timely. As usual, it’s hit or miss with this seller, but often times you can get great values, and their customer service is always very good.
