This is for my CAP studies that I discovered Xinran. When dun course on Asian literature, I was intrigued by the themes of his works. Former presenter with Chinese radio journalist Xinran animated, there are a few years show, "Words on the Night Breeze", where listeners, women, often anonymous, were speaking on family dordre subjects, personal and even sex, subjects that were often buried in it. It is this issue that gave him the idea to describe the stories of these forgotten Chinese, despite having lived a hard life, sometimes incredibly violent, full of despair.

In Chinese, the Chinese Xinran recounts destinies met during his show or when his journalistic travels. It shows us, in a collection of stories all more heartbreaking than each other, hard horriblements terms of Chinese women in an extremely changing society.

Despite the heartbreaking stories told by these anonymous, Chinese is a work in which the hope prevails. The hope to see this society change and become aware of its shortcomings. The hope of seeing the stories of these women, unknown, never to be forgotten.

During playback, it is mainly our Western beliefs that take a hit. Whatever we think of acquired right, millions of women nespèrent not even have one day access. In a modern world like ours, many laws and traditions dating back centuries are firmly anchored in Chinese society, so fragile, constantly changing.

China is not a book quon bed to relax, louvrage does not leave indifferent and many emotions raise us throughout our reading. In a land where silence is golden, voices rise and sunissent to testify. Do not ignore, let them express themselves and make sure that their stories are never lost in oblivion
