Více o knize

Set against the backdrop of historical conflict in China, the narrative explores the significance of the lost Books of Peace, which were deemed too dangerous to exist. Maxine Hong Kingston's Fourth Book of Peace emerges from personal tragedy, particularly the loss of her father during the 1991 Berkeley-Oakland Hills fire. This work intricately blends fiction and memoir, offering a profound reflection on themes of war, peace, destruction, and the possibility of renewal, ultimately aiming to heal and inspire.
