Love is strong as death.

In China a middle aged woman looks back on her life: her happy childhood, her parents’ loving marriage, and her mother’s deep conservatism. How this split them apart for many years and that a final reconciliation was only made possible after death. It is a novella about the barriers we place between ourselves and those we most love and how the simple domestic things of life carry a meaning far beyond their every day use.
