All the Flowers in Shanghai : A Novel Paperback
by Duncan Jepson
Paperback
Description
In 1930s Shanghai, following the path of duty takes precedence over personal desires for every young Chinese woman.
For Feng, that means becoming the bride of a wealthy businessman in a marriage arranged by her parents.
In the enclosed world of the Sang household - a place of public ceremony and private cruelty - she learns that fulfilling her duty means bearing a male heir.
Ruthless and embittered by a life that has been forced on her, Feng plots a terrible revenge.
But as the years pass, she must come to a reckoning with the sacrifices and the terrible choices she has made to assure her place in family and society, before the entire country is engulfed in the fast-flowing tide of revolution.
