Noah’s Reviews > Last Boat Out of Shanghai: The Epic Story of the Chinese Who Fled Mao's Revolution > Status Update

A fascinating, searing, and emotional book with a gut-punch of a twist at the end. The author’s empathic retelling of her subjects’ stories and human insight into their inner lives and thoughts makes this book required reading for all those who crave to understand this critical time in history from the perspective of those who actually lived it. A book the left me with awe.
