"The best ethnography of rural China in the 1990s, this important book is about a rarely explored but central dimension of Chinese family life.

It takes years of sharing villagers' lives to see beneath the surface. Yan lived it, and he brings deep understanding to both the narrative and the analysis."--Deborah Davis, Yale University "This may well prove to be the finest rural ethnography of a Chinese village ever written. By focusing on the emotional domain, Yan invites his readers to engage ethnographically in a new domain of scholarly exploration and analysis. In so doing, he has made the Chinese more human. It is a wonderful study."--William Jankowiak, University of Nevada, Las Vegas
