Dreams Of Joy by Lisa See
A spirited young woman rebels against her Los Angeles life and impulsively returns to Maoist China in search of identity, family and political purpose, only to find the reality of collectivization, idealism and famine far harsher than she expected; her determined mother follows her into the countryside, and their fraught reunion forces both women to confront love, betrayal and the personal costs of loyalty amid sweeping social and political upheaval.
