China Dolls by Lisa See
3.0
This was an easy vacation read. I am not sure if I could have enjoyed it till the end had I not been on vacation with nothing but time to stay engaged :)
China Dolls tells the story of the rise of Asian entertainers on the nightclub circuit during the late 1930s through the mid 1940s, through the lives of Grace, Helen, and Ruby, three separate women who were Asian entertainers during that time. It is in the way that the lives of these three women alternately intersect and diverge that the story of what it was like to be an entertainer on the "Chop Suey Circuit" was like.
