Susan Blumberg-Kason’s Good Chinese Wife is a stark and honest interrogation of her young marriage to a Chinese man, and a chronicle of the excruciating dissolution of that marriage. Blumberg-Kason explores difficult, personal questions about her own life and choices, as well as universal ones about how we choose our life partners, and to what extent human beings are willing – and able – to communicate with and love each other over the vast differences that can define and divide us. This is a thoughtful memoir about how to take valuable lessons from even our most painful adventures.
