<p><strong>Synopsis</strong></p>
<p>The award-winning  author returns to his homeland in a searing new novel that unfurls during one of  the darkest moments of the 20th century: the Rape of Nanjing. In 1937, with the  Japanese poised to invade, Minnie Vautrin—an American missionary and the dean of  Jinling Women’s College—decides to remain at the school, convinced that her  American citizenship will help her safeguard the welfare of the Chinese men and  women who work there. With extraordinarily evocative precision, Ha Jin  re-creates the terror, the harrowing deprivations, and the menace of unexpected  violence that defined life in Nanjing during the occupation.</p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p>This event is co-sponsored by Boston Chinatown Neighborhood  Center (<a title="blocked::http://www.bcnc.net/" href="http://www.bcnc.net/">www.bcnc.net</a>) and Asian American Resource  Workshops (<a title="blocked::http://www.aarw.org/" href="http://www.aarw.org/">www.aarw.org</a>)</p>
