Una emocionante novela histórica sobre el destino de dos niñas en la China del siglo XIX que cautivará a los lectores de Memorias de una geisha.
China, siglo XIX. Pequeña Flor procede de una familia muy humilde pero su madre empezó a vendarle los pies siendo muy pequeña, sabedora de que ese era el mejor legado que podÃa ofrecerle. Cuando es vendida a la familia Fong como criada personal de la pequeña Linjing, Pequeña Flor sabe que sus lirios dorados, sus diminutos pies de loto, son su única esperanza de alcanzar algún dÃa la libertad. El destino de las dos niñas estará irremediablemente unido. Linjing, presa de los celos y de la envidia, se asegurará de que Pequeña Flor nunca pueda regresar con los suyos. Hasta que el escándalo golpea a la familia Fong y las vidas de las dos niñas se ven inesperadamente sumidas en el caos. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION NATIONAL BESTSELLER Brilliantly written, masterful storytelling, and hard to put down. This story will stay with me for a very, very long time. --Heather Morris, #1 bestselling author of The Tattooist of Auschwitz An empowering, uplifting tale of two women from opposite sides of society, and their extraordinary journey of sisterhood, betrayal, love and triumph. 1800s China. Tightly bound feet, or golden lilies, are the mark of an honorable woman, eclipsing beauty, a rich dowry and even bloodline in the marriage stakes. When Little Flower is sold as a maidservant--a muizai--to Linjing, a daughter of the prominent Fong family, she clings to the hope that one day her golden lilies will lead her out of slavery. Not only does Little Flower have bound feet, uncommon for a muizai, but she is extraordinarily gifted at embroidery, a skill associated with the highest class of a lady. Resentful of her talents, Linjing does everything in her power to thwart Little Flower's escape. But when scandal strikes the Fongs, both women are cast out to the Celibate Sisterhood, where Little Flower's artistic prowess catches the eye of a nobleman. His attention threatens not only her improved status, but her life--the Sisterhood punishes disobedience with death. And if Linjing finds out, will she sabotage Little Flower to reclaim her power, or will she protect her?
