Rating:
Summary: Women of the Long March
Review: I read this book for a project in history class, I found it really interesting. Its about 3 womens life during the 1930s. What these women went through during that time is what we can say tragic, but to them nothing was more important their country. He Zizhen was the main character or this book. She was the second wife of Mao Tse Tung, she gave birth to 2 babies during the Long March, but she had to leave them behind because of the harsh condition that the have to walk through, it was impossible for the baby to survive. Kang Keqing was one of the girl commander of the group, because she always acted like she had all the energy even though she was tired and sick. She is very helpful around both men or women because she thinks she should set a good role model since she was the wife of the commander in chief. Wang Quanyuan, who is just a normal peasant, left her husband to join the Communist party, and she was the organizer of their group. Even though many women have risked their lives for the Communist party, men still holds some of the attitude that there is not equality between men and women. This is a great book on how the Communist group went and how women were treated at that period of time.
