Overview
Traces the rivalry between two Chinese sisters, a doctor and a writer, whose lives took very different paths in their respective quests to become independent women, from Lin Shuhao's medical studies in America during the anti-Asian hostilities of the 1920s to Shuhua's rise within the Beijing literary scene. |

 | A Thousand Miles of Dreams Apr 17, 2009 |
| Deeply disappointed. The story is relatively flat and unenticing. I did not even want to finish the book. | | |  | An Amazing Story Sep 28, 2007 |
| Amy was my Grandmother and I learned so much about my family history from Sasha's book. I loved the exploration of the truth between the stories that we heard growing up and Sasha's extensive research on the reality of the stories. I loved Sasha's book and consider it an important part of my roots. | | | | Exceptional Apr 8, 2007 |
| Professor Welland proves that extensive research and good storytelling are not mutually exclusive, which does not hold true for many of the academic books I have read. This book is unmistakably academic, with Welland adding a scholarly and critical perspective to the events she describes, but that is certainly not a bad thing. Layered with incredible detail, her graceful writing style made the stories of both her ancestors, and the search to reconcile their differences, extremely engaging. Certainly a worthwhile read for anyone interested in Chinese history. | | | Write your own review about A Thousand Miles of Dreams: The Journeys of Two Chinese Sisters (Asian Voices)
