The Feast of Lanterns is a novel written by Louise Jordan Miln and published in 1920. Set in China, the story revolves around a young American woman named Betty Carew who travels to the country to marry her fianc�����, Tom. However, upon her arrival, she discovers that Tom has been kidnapped by a local warlord and is being held for ransom. Betty is determined to rescue Tom, but she soon finds herself caught up in the political and social upheavals of China during the early 20th century. As she navigates the complex and dangerous world of Chinese politics, Betty must also come to terms with her own identity and the role she plays in the conflict.The novel explores themes of love, loyalty, and cultural identity, as well as the impact of Western imperialism on China. Miln's vivid descriptions of Chinese customs and traditions, including the titular Feast of Lanterns, bring the setting to life and provide a rich backdrop for the story.Overall, The Feast of Lanterns is a compelling and thought-provoking novel that offers a unique perspective on a pivotal moment in Chinese history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
