Journey of a Thousand Miles documents the remarkable, dramatic story of a family who sacrificed almost everything¡Xhis parents¡¦ marriage, financial security, Lang Lang¡¦s childhood, and their reputation in China¡¦s insular classical music world¡Xfor the belief in a young boy¡¦s talent. And it reveals the devastating and intense relationship between a boy and his father, who was willing to go to any length to make his son a star. An engaging, informative cultural commentator who bridges East and West, Lang Lang has written more than an autobiography: his book opens a door to China, where Lang Lang is a cultural icon, at a time when the world¡¦s attention will be on Beijing. Written with David Ritz, Journey of a Thousand Miles is an inspiring story that will give readers an appreciation for the courage and sacrifice it takes to achieve greatness.
