      About This Book

      “My name is Arthur Hayashi. I was born in Manchuria in 1910.” When Japan surrendered to the Allies at the end of WWII, more than 6 million of their citizens were left stranded abroad. In China alone there were 2.6 million Japanese, including many women and children, despised by the world and forgotten by their government. Determined to survive, the brilliant and mercurial military doctor Arthur Hayashi hid in Communist China for decades and left his grand-daughter an unforgettable legacy. Named after the ancient Chinese city on which Kyoto was modeled, Chang'an is a refreshingly unconventional take on Japan, China and the modern quest to end decades of bitterness.
