Message from an Unknown Chinese Mother: Stories of Loss and Love

---

Message from an Unknown Chinese Mother: Stories of Loss and Love, written by Xinran and published by Chatto & Windus, is a moving non-fiction collection of personal narratives. Drawing from her experiences as a journalist and radio host in China, Xinran documents the tragic accounts of mothers who were forced to part with their baby daughters under the constraints of China's One-Child Policy, cultural biases, and economic hardship. The book gives voice to the immense grief, love, and silent sacrifices of these Chinese mothers while offering adopted children worldwide a profound window into their biological heritage and mothers' memories.
