Adam lives in China and Italy and has three children. To find out more, visit Adam's website http://www.adam-williams.net or follow him on Twitter at twitter.com/_AdamWilliams.
	'The Dragon's Tail is an epic sprawl . . . Meticulously recreating the past, Williams's exploration of the effect of the cultural revolution on the Chinese psyche is gripping stuff . . . a compelling account of a people's ability to survive in the face of adversity.'
Other text	Two lovers are torn apart by politics and history in this epic romance of twentieth-century China, during a period of dizzying change.
