Lady Tan’s Circle of Women
$18.91
by Lisa See
Raised by her grandparents, heroine Tan Yunxian’s grandmother teaches her all she knows about treating and healing women, alongside her best friend Meiling, a midwife-in-training. When Tan becomes a wife in an arranged marriage though, it’s all off limits. You will root for Tan as you follow her journey as a mother, wife and doctor, where she even heads to the Forbidden City to help with infant deliveries. This wondrous, well-researched story is inspired by the true love, life and friendships of a remark- able woman physician from 15th-century China.
