Barbara Demick movingly traces this history of overseas Chinese adoptions and their ripple effects on both sides of the Pacific.The Wall Street JournalOn a warm day in September 2000, a woman named Zanhua gave birth to twin girls in a small hut behind her brothers home in Chinas Hunan province. The twins, Fangfang and Shuangjie, were welcome additions to her family but also not her first children. Living under the shadow of Chinas notorious one-child policy, Zanhua and her husband decided to leave one twin in the care of relatives, hoping each toddler on their own might stay under the radar. But, in 2002, Fangfang was violently snatched away. The family worried they would never see her again, but they didnt imagine she could be sent as far as the United States. She might as well have been sent to another world.Following stories she wrote as the Beijing bureau chief for the Los Angeles Times, Barbara Demick embarks on a journey that encompasses the origins, shocking cruelty, and long-term impact of Chinas one-child rule; the rise of international adoption and the religious currents that buoyed it; and the exceedingly rare phenomenon of twin separation. Today, Estherformerly Fangfanglives in Texas, and Demick brings to vivid life the Christian family that felt called to adopt her, unaware that she had been kidnapped. Through Demicks indefatigable reporting, will the long-lost sisters finally reuniteand will they feel whole again?A remarkable window into the volatile, constantly changing China of the last half century and the long-reaching legacy of the countrys most infamous law, Daughters of the Bamboo Grove is also the moving story of two sisters torn apart by the forces of history and brought together again by their families determination and one reporters dogged work.Excellent . . . entrancing and disturbing . . .

The twins, Fangfang and Shuangjie, were welcome additions to her young family but also not her first children. Hidden in the hut, they were born under the shadow of Chinas notorious one-child policy. Fearing the ire of family planning officials, Zanhua and her husband decided to leave one twin in the care of relatives, hoping each toddler on their own might stay under the radar. But, in late 2002, Fangfang was violently snatched away from her aunts care. The family worried they would never see her again, but they didnt imagine she could be sent to the United States. She might as well have been sent to another world.Following her stories written as the Beijing bureau chief for the Los Angeles Times, Barbara Demick, author of National Book Award finalist Nothing to Envy, embarks on a journey that encompasses the origins, shocking cruelty, and long term impact of Chinas one-child rule; the rise of international adoption and the religious currents that buoyed it; and the exceedingly rare phenomenon of twin separation. Today, Esther--formerly Fangfang--is a photographer in Texas, and Demick brings to vivid life the Christian family that felt called to adopt her, having no idea that she was kidnapped. Through Demicks indefatigable reporting and the activist work to find these lost children, will these two long-lost sisters finally find each other, and if they do, will they feel whole again?A remarkable window into the volatile, constantly changing China of the last half century and the long-reaching legacy of the countrys most infamous law, Daughters of the Bamboo Grove is also the moving story of two sisters torn apart by the forces of history and brought together again by their families determination and one reporters dogged work....(*_*)9780593132753_The heartrending story of twin sisters torn apart by Chinas one-child policy and the rise of international adoptionfrom the author of the National Book Award finalist Nothing to Envy, one of todays leading reportersBarbara Demick turns the seemingly prosaic human dramas of our societies into a cinematic and heart-rending epic tale with consequences that cross continents.Emily Feng, author of Let Only Red Flowers BloomOn a warm day in September 2000, a woman named Zanhua gave birth to twin girls in a small hut behind her brothers home in Chinas Hunan province.
