Looking for multi-generational historical fiction about China?

Michelle Fu’s debut novel Peach Blossom Spring is both sprawling and gripping. A true family saga, the story begins with Meilin, who lives in China with her son Renshu at the beginning of 1938. World events take the family through World War II and the Communist Revolution, to Taipei and eventually the United States, where the family makes a new home and grapples with the scars of war and the complexity of evolving identity. Fu handles each subject at hand with a depth of character and gripping prose that will hook even history-phobic readers.
