Feline Life of Mabel Waln Smith Weaves War and Art
Mabel Waln Smith, once trapped in the Pootung camp near Shanghai with her English husband, Fredrick, survives internment and a postwar exodus. She later settles in Australia, writes lively books about China, and helps found the Australian PEN Club while collaborating with libraries and colleges to mentor budding writers.
