Finding Iris Chang
ISBN: 9780306817250 bzw. 030681725X, in Englisch, Da Capo Press, neu.
Iris Changs mysterious suicide in 2004, at age thirty-six, didnt seem to make any sense. She had more to live for than anyone, including fame, fortune, beauty, a husband, and child. Some even wondered if the controversial author of the Rape of Nanking had been murdered. Long-time friend Paula Kamen was among those left wondering what had gone so wrong. Seeking to reconcile the suicide with the image of Changs perfect life, Kamen searched her own memory and scoured Changs letters, diaries, and archival material to fill in the gaps of Changs personal transformation-from awkward teen to homecoming princess in college, from ex-shy person to world-class speaker and international human rights pioneer-and later decline into mental illness and paranoia. A literary investigation of an important writers journey, Finding Iris is a tribute to a lost heroine, a portrait of the real and vulnerable woman who inspired so many around the world.
