Description
An eye-opening and previously untold story, "Factory Girls" is the first look into the everyday lives of the migrant factory population in China. The author demonstrates how "the mass movement from rural villages to cities is remaking individual lives and transforming Chinese society, much as immigration to America's shores remade our own country a century ago."
