Editor's Review ★★★★

AudioBook Atlas

Rebecca Lam's nuanced performance brings Anna May Wong to vivid life in Daughter of the Dragon. Her delivery is both passionate and restrained, perfectly capturing the subtlety required to convey Wong’s dual identity as a Chinese American star. The audiobook delves into Wong's personal battles with Hollywood's racial stereotypes, making for an emotionally charged listen. However, some historical context could have been more extensively covered. Despite this, it remains a compelling narrative that celebrates a forgotten icon.
