About the Book Chinese Cinderella
Chinese Cinderella tells the heart-wrenching story of Adeline Yen Mah's childhood in 1940s China. Born the fifth child to an affluent family, Adeline's life took a tragic turn with the death of her mother shortly after her birth. Blamed for this misfortune, she grew up feeling unwanted and unloved by her father and stepmother.
Throughout the book, Adeline faces relentless cruelty and neglect, yet she remains resilient. Her academic success becomes her sole refuge and a way to gain recognition. With each chapter, readers witness her battles against both familial oppression and societal expectations.
Adeline's life sees a glimmer of hope when she wins a prestigious international playwriting competition. This achievement finally earns her father’s reluctant approval and the opportunity to pursue her education abroad. Despite her hardships, Adeline’s story concludes on a note of resilience and determination.

Meanwhile, this page is active so you can order books; it just isn't quite as informative or graphically appealing as the new page will be. Thanks for understanding! :-)
