 * Reluctant Delete I can't find anything English-language, but a search of Google Books or Google News Archives shows various articles in Chinese, but of course I can't make any comments about their content or reliability. - ManicSpider (talk) 00:48, 9 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Weak keep: Eileen Chang is not a minor writer, and the book has some value as "the first of two semi-autobiographical novels". It book can be found online with its reference ISBN 9888028367. A page on the HKU Press can be found here . olivier (talk) 14:23, 9 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Change to keep. I have made some research and changes to the article. I have also moved it to a more appropriate title. The book is reviewed and mentioned in English in quite a few places on the internet. The material of the book formed the basis of another book from the same author which was a bestseller in Asia in 2009. The article needs quite a lot of rework, though. olivier (talk) 15:35, 9 February 2011 (UTC)
