Blue Dress Girl E. V. Thompson
Blue Dress Girl
E. V. Thompson
When a Chinese peasant girl is chosen as a concubine to Li Hung, Chief Customs Officer for the bustling port of Canton, her parents tell her it is a great honour - but the seedy reality is far from honourable. This beautifully told saga is majestically woven around the lives of two people, discovering unexpected feelings in unfamiliar territory.
