Jung Chang arriveerde in 1978 op 26-jarige leeftijd in het Verenigd Koninkrijk, als onderdeel van een Chinees studiebeursprogramma. Ze bevond zich in het Londen van punk, politieke protesten en Ziggy Stardust en voelde zich alsof ze op de maan was geland. Toch zou zij zich hier uiteindelijk definitief vestigen. Zij en haar medestudenten waren allemaal opgegroeid in volledige isolatie van het Westen, en bang voor wat er zou gebeuren als ze een van de strenge regels zouden overtreden die hun door hun regering waren opgelegd.

Flyv, vilde svaner bringer historien om Jungs familie – og Kinas – op til nutiden. Gennem deres respektive livsforløb beretter Jung Chang medrivende, dybt bevægende og uforglemmeligt om, hvordan det er at leve i et kommunistisk diktatur og om de trusler, det moderne Kina udgør for den internationale verdensorden. Bogen er på mange måder Jungs kærlighedsbrev til hendes mor, men den handler også om hendes bedstemor og hendes far, der begge døde tragisk under Kulturrevolutionen.

Eles ficaram enclausurados durante os quase trinta anos de governo de Mao Tsé-Tung e agora viajam pelo mundo todo e são os maiores usuários de internet do planeta. Quem são, afinal, esses 1,3 bilhão de chineses? Por que a relação do país com o Ocidente—e com os vizinhos—mudou tanto ao longo do tempo? Como esse país milenar, responsável por invenções importantíssimas para a humanidade como o papel e a bússola, pode ser acusado de copiar tecnologias estrangeiras?
