{"product_id":"9781803513249","title":"Bad Bad Girl","description":"\u003cp\u003eGrowing up in an affluent neighbourhood in 1930s Shanghai, Loo Shu-hsin is told that it is 'no good for a girl to be smart' - and yet when rumours of the revolution reach their enclave, she is the one sent abroad for an education. In New York, she meets Chao-Pei, a Chinese engineering student, and they set out to make a life together. By the time their daughter - Gish Jen - is born, her parents have only sporadic contact with their families, who are locked in repressive Maoist China. And in her struggle to discipline her American daughter, Loo Shu-hsin finds herself repeating the punishing refrains - 'Bad bad girl! You don't know how to talk!' - that punctured her own childhood. 'Bad Bad Girl' is a compelling exploration of a mother's life in exile from one of America's finest stylists.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Granta Books","offers":[{"title":"Gish \/ Jen","offer_id":56384420905333,"sku":"9781803513249","price":18.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/goldenharebooks.live\/products\/9781803513249","provider":"Golden Hare Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
