Review:
'Immensely moving and unsettling; an unforgettable portrait of the brain-death of a nation.' (The Sunday Times)
'Wild Swans made me feel like a five-year-old. This is a family memoir that has the breadth of the most enduring social history.' (The Independent on Sunday)
'There has never been a book like this.' (Los Angeles Times)
'Everything about Wild Swans is extraordinary. It arouses all the emotions, such as pity and terror, that great tragedy is supposed to evoke, and also a complex mixture of admiration, despair and delight at seeing a luminous intelligence directed at the heart of darkness.' (The Sunday Telegraph)
