Forced sterilization: Chinese author writes about the one-child policy

When the issue of children becomes a political issue: The Chinese woman Sheng Keyi talks about slow emancipation.

Whether or not to have offspring is probably nowhere as much of a political decision as in China. In “The Womb,” Sheng Keyi traces how the one-child policy has shaped the lives of women in China since the late 1970s. It is the author’s first book to be translated into German.
