A story of an unwanted Chinese daughter growing up during the Communist Revolution, blamed for her mother's death, ignored by her millionaire father and unwanted by her Eurasian step mother. It is a story of greed, hatred and jealousy; a domestic drama that is played against the extraordinary political events in China and Hong Kong.

New 25th Anniversary Edition

''I am still haunted by Mah''s memoir . . . Riveting. A marvel of memory. Poignant proof of the human will to endure'' Amy Tan, bestselling author of The Joy Luck Club

1940s, Shanghai. As the civil war rages on and China falls under communist rule, young Adeline lives in constant fear. Not of the war, but of her family: blamed for the death of her mother, she is rejected by her father and abused by her cruel stepmother.

With the help of her aunt, Adeline escapes to the United States where she finds love, happiness and success. But will that be enough to quell a lifelong yearning for acceptance, or will she return to the family that rejected her years ago

Falling Leaves Return to their Roots is both the enthralling story of a Chinese family in a time of political upheaval, and a moving account of one girl''s unrelenting will to survive.
