Women, their father tells them, are like chopsticks: utilitarian and easily broken. But when they leave their home in the countryside to seek their fortune in the big city, their eyes are suddenly and shockingly opened. Together they find jobs, make new friends, and learn more than a few lessons about life...

Maybe this wasn't the best choice after the amazing "Radium Girls." I don't understand why women buy into this crap with my head, but I know we are conditioned to buy into it from early in our lives.

It's got to stop. BTW...This is a Chinese author, so the women as second class citizens seems universal. Time to change those socializations everywhere!

ptkpepe98 @SassenachTheBookWizard ... Indeed it is. So well done. 6y
