A selection of writings by one of China's most famous writers and cultural revolutionaries deals with feminist issues in China

About the Author: Ding Ling (1904-1986) was the pen name of Jiang Bingzhi. She was a prominent writer and active member of the Chinese Communist Party. Her published works, which were pioneering in their examination of gender issues and discrimination against women, include Miss Sophia's Diary, The Sun Shines Over Sanggan River (which received the Soviet Union's Stalin Prize in 1951), and I Myself Am a Woman: Selected Writings of Ding Ling.

Ding Ling was sentenced to prison in 1957, and spent 12 years in hard labor. After she was released, she was able to travel to the United States, where she attended the International Writing Program at the University of Iowa.
