My Chinese Marriage is a work ghostwritten by Katherine Anne Porter, preceding her first book under her own name.  The book recounts the author's experiences as a young American woman who falls in love with a Chinese man and marries him, despite the disapproval of her family and society. The memoir provides a vivid description of the author's life in China, including her struggles with cultural differences, language barriers, and the prejudices of both Chinese and American societies. The book also explores the tensions between tradition and modernity in China during the early 20th century, as well as the challenges faced by interracial couples. Overall, My Chinese Marriage offers a unique and insightful perspective on cross-cultural relationships and the complexities of identity in a rapidly changing world.
