For two years before and after the 1948 Communist Revolution, David Kidd lived inPeking, where he married the daughter of an aristocratic Chinese family. “I usedto hope,” he writes, “that some bright young scholar on a research grant would writeabout us and our Chinese friends before it was too late and we were all dead andgone, folding into the darkness the wonder that had been our lives.” Here Kidd himselfbrings that wonder to life.
