Booklist Review (not available online). "The subtitle of the latest by Chang (The Library of Legends, 2020) leaves out the book’s most interesting and unique aspect, its focus on the contributions of Chinese people to the war effort…Refreshingly, the entwined stories have a happy ending. Readers of Jennifer Chiaverini's Switchboard Soldiers (2022) will appreciate Chang's rich historical detail and strong female characters.” [Jan. 1, 2023]
