A Comrade Lost and Found: A Beijing MemoirIn the early 1970s, at the height of the Cultural Revolution, Jan Wong traveled from Canada to become one of only two Westerners permitted to study at Beijing University.

In the early 1970s, at the height of the Cultural Revolution, Jan Wong traveled from Canada to become one of only two Westerners permitted to study at Beijing University. One day a fellow student, Yin Luoyi, asked for help getting to the United States. Wong, then a starry-eyed Maoist from Montreal, immediately reported her to the authorities, and shortly thereafter Yin disappeared. Thirty-three years later, hoping to make amends, Wong revisits the Chinese capital to search for the person who has haunted her conscience. At the very least, she wants to discover whether Yin survived. But Wong finds the new Beijing bewildering. Phone numbers, addresses, and even names change with startling frequency. In a society determined to bury the past, Yin Luoyi will be hard to find. As she traces her way from one former comrade to the next, Wong unearths not only the fate of the woman she betrayed but a web that mirrors the strange and dramatic journey of contemporary China and rekindles all of her love for--and disillusionment with--her ancestral land.Binding Type: Paperback

MUST READ - Biblical Perspective of Sex and Relationships, Great Book For Late Teens
Format: Hardcover
This book gives a right on Biblical perspective of dating, relationships, sex and more. Every Christian parent should buy this for their older teenage kids. I bought this book for my 18 year old daughter. She took it to school and found out that several of her friends had heard about the author and were also reading it. Her boyfriend is reading it now too. The Q&A portion at the end of the book is so good.

Incredible tool for engaged couples!!!
Format: Hardcover
When I ordered this I had no idea whether it would be good or not but I was just trying to find a nice devotional or something for my fiancé and I to study together. We are maybe halfway through the book now and it has been incredible. I read the first few pages as we were driving together on a road trip and I almost started crying from the special way it presented the beauty of marriage. Every chapter opens up deep conversations between us; the discussion questions get exactly to the heart of the toughest topics to broach. This book leaves no stone unturned, continually challenging you to share your hearts, your thoughts, your hopes, and your expectations with each other, while keeping God as the center focus. The author comes alongside as you let down walls between each other, acknowledging just how difficult, but also freeing, it can be to let another person completely into every aspect of your life. This book has been and will continue to be an invaluable tool for us!
