Critic Reviews

"I will never forget the first time I read Jenny Zhang... [I was] stunned, moved and - quite frankly - a little jealous.... This book takes Jenny's voice to a new level.... I hope you love Sour Heart as much as I do." (Lena Dunham)
"Zhang's got range: the poet/Rookie writer/essayist and now fiction writer has a voice that's at once incisive and playful and emboldened." (TheMillions)
Most relevant

Some chapters were too sharp, too bitter for my taste.

What absolute brutes Chinese kids were!
