The long-awaited sequel to Wild Swans, the multi-million copy, international bestselling sensation that traces the history of modern China through the true stories of three generations of women in one family.

Jung Chang’s epic family memoir, Wild Swans, defined a generation, chronicling the experiences of Jung, her mother, and her grandmother—“three daughters of China”—as China transformed from empire to Communist nation. Fly, Wild Swans continues the story of Jung’s family—and China—from the late 1970s until today. During that time, China rises from a decrepit and isolated state to world power challenging American dominance as Jung makes a new life in the West—one of the first Chinese to leave her homeland at the end of the Cultural Revolution. As Jung becomes a writer, her life remains intimately entwined with her native land, a relationship made more complex because her books are banned.
