The Silk Princess - Dyan Penelope

The silk Princess is a novel about three women who never have met, but whose lives are intertwined in the fabric of Chinese history. Travel the Pearl River with the opium swiftboats, and walk through the streets of China experiencing China as it was and will hopefully never be again. Watch as the Chinese innocently believe they can fight western guns with their paper dragons, and experience the Chinese culture and people in their struggle to keep a dying ancient civilization based upon mere survival alive. The Silk princess is a story of life and death, of beginnings and endings, wrapped in harsh reality and love.
