Great read whether true or not!, February 22, 2013
By Thidwick50
This review is from: Bend, Not Break: A Life in Two Worlds (Hardcover)
I enjoyed this story. It is well written, inspirational, and interesting on many levels: as a biography, as a history, as a rags-to-riches tale, as a how-to for women in business, as a philosophy of life tale. Some reviewers claim the book contains mistakes about the author's childhood and is full of self-promoting lies. I can't judge that (some of the reviewers seem to be "promoting" pro-China propoganda and lack credibility themselves; I mean can anyone take seriously the claim that this book is untrue because "gang rape never happens in China?") and frankly I don't care if the book contains some exaggerations or fantasies. She has a compelling voice and whether her story is true or fiction, it is worth reading.
