More than 800,000 copies in printFrom the author of critically acclaimed and bestselling memoir Falling Leaves, this is a poignant and moving true account of her childhood, growing up as an unloved daughter in 1940s China. A Chinese proverb says, "Falling leaves return to their roots." In her own courageous voice, Adeline Yen Mah returns to her roots to tell the story of her painful childhood and her ultimate triumph in the face of despair. Adeline's affluent, powerful family considers her bad luck after her mother dies giving birth to her, and life does not get any easier when her father remarries. Adeline and her siblings are subjected to the disdain of her stepmother, while her stepbrother and stepsister are spoiled with gifts and attention. Although Adeline wins prizes at school, they are not enough to compensate for what she really yearns for -- the love and understanding of her family. Like the classic Cinderella story, this powerful memoir is a moving story of resilience and hope. Includes an Author's Note, a 6-page photo insert, a historical note, and the Chinese text of the original Chinese Cinderella. A PW BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR

Stylish, packable warmth layer I'm using for travel the fits and looks great!
Size: Large, Color: Gray, Size: Large, Color: Gray
I like the COOFANDY brand a lot for good looking clothes, that fit me correctly (Large size, for me 180lbs 6'0", athletic build), all at a reasonable price.
This Jacket fits me great and looks great, and it's stylish enough that I'll feel comfortable going to museums and restaraunts, etc while we're away in Europe this fall. I bought the gray which looked correct vs images on the web, and a good color in my opinion. My pictures were done in different lighting because of needing to be in front of the mirror, but color is accurate on web. I like having the hood, which will be good for outdoor travel / walking in sometimes rainy weather, and hood looks good down (not too bulky). Zippers seem good quality, and I like zippered pockets, plus there's internal pockets (not zippered) if you desire, and an included stash back for compact packing into my day pack. Sleeve cuffs and right size and nice. Note, that there is no bottom waistline drawstring adjustment, but I don't need such because it fits me great and I wanted something more city and less outdoorsy. Really like this jacket for my need, outer layer for city type travel while staying warm and looking good.
