Romance ebook title: February Flowers

Set in modern China, February Flowers tells the stories of two young women's journeys to self-discovery and reconciliation with the past. Seventeen-year-old Ming and twenty-four-year-old Yan have very little in common other than studying at the same college. Ming, idealistic and preoccupied, lives in her own world of books, music, and imagination. Yan, by contrast, is sexy but cynical, beautiful but wild, with no sense of home. When the two meet and become friends, Ming's world is forever changed. But their differences in upbringing and ideology ultimately drive them apart, leaving each to face her dark secret alone. Insightful, sophisticated, and rich with complex characters, February Flowers captures a society torn between tradition and modernity, dogma and freedom. It is a meditation on friendship, family, love, loss, and redemption and how a background shapes a life.

Mine is on the top but the view is blocked by a forest of half-built commercial highrises. The landlord wants me to sign a one-year lease, but I have agreed only to a six-month term. I know her apartment building, like other shabby two to three-story buildings in the neighborhood, will be torn down and replaced by another highrise in less than a year.

I could have lived in the more modern Tianhe District like most of my friends but I like the narrow cobblestone alley in front of the building, where old people gather in the late afternoons under a spreading banyan tree to play mahjong or sing Cantonese opera. Across the alley is another identical apartment block. All its balconies are covered with laundry and flowers such as roses, chrysanthemums, lilies, and hibiscus -- Cantonese people like flowers and arrange them well, often in window boxes that decorate the stree ... read full excerpt from February Flowers ebook
