About Forbidden City: “Masterful…sweeping… eye-opening, vital and timely now more than ever”—Washington Post "Arresting, beautiful, and epic, Vanessa Hua’s Forbidden City left me breathless by the last page. Hua’s writing is propulsive and packed with rich historical details and exquisitely crafted characters. Forbidden City is at once a sweeping political drama, a coming-of-age story, and a novel that will leave a lasting impact for readers everywhere. Mei is a character who will stay with you long after reading. " —Lara Prescott, The Secrets We Kept About The Neapolitan Sisters A Today.com Most Anticipated Latinx Book of 2022! Neapolitan Sisters is about three vastly different lives, family secrets. A story of sisterhood, at times poignant, funny, and provocative..
