SHANGHAI GIRLS: Novel, by Lisa See

SHANGHAI GIRLS

Fate, The Luck and Destiny, these are the three sections which make up the story of the writer. Reading the novel, you will discover the life of two women, and the pages are full of their memories, memories of a distant time, those of Shanghai in the Thirties. You’ll discover a city where ancient traditions were not forgotten, observe these two women living in a Western, but who are forced to return to the old rules, marrying whom they had never seen. Their new life – among many events – is in Los Angeles, a city where they try to rebuild everything that no longer exists, waiting for what still has not arrived.
