Few books have had such an impact as Wild Swans: a popular bestseller and a critically acclaimed history of China that opened up the country to the world. Through the story of three generations of women in her own family – the grandmother given to the warlord as a concubine, the Communist mother and the daughter herself – Jung Chang reveals the epic history of China's twentieth century. Breathtaking in its scope, unforgettable in its descriptions, this is a masterpiece which is extraordinary in every way.©1991 Globalflair Ltd, 2003 (P)2015 Bolinda Publishing

The book is about three generations of Chinese women and their struggle to survive in Maos China. It covers almost 60 years and gives a glimpse of post Mao and the China under Maos rule. If you are interested in getting to know China's history, then you can definitely listen to it. The voice of the narrator is specially calm and the narration is good. Just take into account that the book is 27hrs long so you will take time to finish it and sometimes it does get tedious

Loved the overall experience
