A wonderful book that documents the history of China, as it affects one particular family, is Wild Swans: Three Daughters of China, by Jung Chang.
Absolutely riveting. And you learn tons about Chinese history. She also wrote a book on Mao - Mao: The Unknown Story.

Two monumental books indeed, going very deep into the hardships of the people, the stupidity and hypocrisy of Mao's policies, best vaccines against communism or any form of central planning
