Description

Un libro di memorie, il racconto dell'avventurosa vita di una donna nata nella Cina del primo Novecento in un'antica e potente famiglia di Shangai, che si confronta con la storia tutta occidentale della nipote vissuta e cresciuta negli Stati Uniti. Cresciuta negli anni turbolenti a cavallo tra la fine dell'Impero cinese e la Rivoluzione comunista, la storia della protagonista è segnata da una serie di ribellioni, a partire dal rifiuto di farsi fasciare i piedi. Man mano che Yu-i le rivela i suoi sogni e i suoi fantasmi, Pang-Mei comincia a riconoscere anche la propria ambivalenza, verso la sua eredità di sangue e la scissione mai ricomposta del suo appartenere a due mondi che rappresentano rispettivamente il legame con le origini e il nuovo desiderio.
