Mirrored in this many-peopled chronicle of the Chia family is a fascinating picture of the China where members of a great ménage lived together, all the sisters and brothers, uncles, cousins and aunts. Graciously, in spite of sorrows and misfortunes, their lives glided into years, in caring for the sick, burying the dead, honoring their traditions, maintaining their loyalties, laughing a little and loving a lot.
