Dear Librarian, Praised by critics as "brilliant", "compelling", and "original and unforgettable", my debut novel FEBRUARY FLOWERS has won rave reviews from the UK, Australia, and Asia, and will continue its adventure to Canada, Italy, France, and many other countries. Now, I'm excited and honored to introduce this book to you. Set in modern China, FEBRUARY FLOWERS tells the stories of two young women's journeys to self-discovery and reconciliation with the past. 17-year-old Ming and 24-year-old Yan have little in common. Ming, idealistic and preoccupied, lives in a world of books, music, and imagination. Yan, by contrast, is sexy, cynical, and wild. Yet when the two meet, they soon become best friends. Their friendship is brief, almost accidental, but intense, and it changes Ming's world forever. FEBRUARY FLOWERS captures a society torn between tradition and modernity, dogma and freedom. It's a profound meditation on friendship, family, love, loss and redemption, and how a background shapes a life. All best, Fan Wu www.fanwuwrites.com
