Xiaolu Guo and her daughter, Moon, travelled to China to investigate the Tang Dynasty, a period of Chinese history from 618 to 907.
The pair considered how China’s past connects to their present lives and identities as a British-Chinese family.
Guo, born in China but a citizen of Britain, wrote about their experiences in “Everyday Tang: On What We Can Learn From a Dynasty.” The book uses the journey as a way to view the cosmopolitan achievements of the dynasty through a contemporary, youthful perspective.
