Fascinating stories of four legendary women of ancient China, all in one volume - reflecting the culture and tumultuous events of those times, where intelligence and creative talent emerged through strength of character.
Ancient China was a "man's world", and so for a woman to excel was like throwing a stone into the air and expecting it to remain.
These four women are brought to life by the author, showing their character; their intelligence; their capacity to love; and most important their resilience. At the end of the book, each will be your sister, where you will weep or celebrate as they did.
To us in our contemporary Western life, ancient China was a harsh place with strange customs that are as fascinating as the
ladies themselves. This is truly a case where history reads more
interesting than fiction.
The four women you will discover throughout this book are:
Cai Wenji, a musical genius;
Shangguan Wan'er, the first female prime minister of the Tang dynasty;
Zhuo Wenjun, who conducted three risky chess moves throughout her life;
Li Qingzhao, the first female poet in a thousand years.
Within, are gorgeous poems that were created by these extraordinary women, that are still adored in China.
