About This Novel
"Twilight in the Forbidden City" describes the special years from 1919 to 1924, when Johnston formed an indissoluble bond with China at the peak of his life. Johnston painted a unique and longing picture of life in the strange and closed world of the Forbidden City. Johnston was well versed in Chinese history and culture, so the rich historical details of that almost forgotten era emerged from his writing like a claw in the mud.
