Producer Kevin A. Kents Memorable Story of Hope Courage and Unparalleled...

In 1937, the Japanese invaded Nanking, China, and a magnificent city was destroyed. Noted screenwriter Kevin A. Kent's8217;s new novel Nanking tells the story of one heroine who stepped forward amid the unparalleled brutality and almost single-handedly saved more than 10,000 lives.



On the day the Japanese entered Nanking, the rapes began. Minnie Vautrin, an American teacher and missionary, took it upon herself to become the protector of the women and girls of Nanking. Inside the walls of the Nanking Ginling Girls's8217; College, a campus designed for 300 women which she helped to co-found, Vautrin managed to shelter more than 10,000.



Unlike many novels based on history, Nanking glamorizes neither the marauders nor the victims, but lays out a story based on historical fact. The author deftly takes real and fictional characters and weaves a narrative around them that is believable and compelling, heartbreaking yet filled with hope. When it comes to Minnie Vautrin, no dramatic storytelling is necessary. The stunningly dramatic landscape painted by Kent reflects a well-developed cinematic eye, making Nanking as compelling as the story itself.
