Bestselling author of Wild Swans, Jung Chang discusses her new biography of the most important woman in Chinese history. Empress Dowager Cixi ruled the countries for decades and according to Jung Chang, brought a medieval empire into the modern age. And yet, until now, she had been portrayed as a diehard conservative despot. Image: Jung Chang at the Forbidden City by Jon Halliday
