My Sister's Red Shirt
By Tie Ning
0 - Default Title
Description
Growing up in a glittering new decade of possibility, Anran is radically different to her sister. Outspoken and idealistic, she relishes in challenging hypocrisy, unlike the older Anjing, whose memories of a turbulent past remind her of the perils of going against the grain.
When Anran is gifted a stylish red shirt that becomes the talk of their sleepy hometown, adolescent delight is construed by her cynical teachers as another act of defiance. As they decide the young firebrand's future, certain lessons can't be avoided. Should Anjing shield her sibling from life's hard truths, or will she let her blaze her own path?
First published in China in 1984, Tie Ning's bestselling coming-of-age novella depicts the loss of innocence and the challenges of being true to yourself in an era of unpredictable transformation.
