ISBN10: 9622098819, ISBN13: 9789622098817, [publisher: Hong Kong University Press, Hong Kong] Hardcover Hardcover. The extraordinary life of the Manchu author, feminist and figure of controversy, who yearned to expose the true humanity of the elderly empress dowager feared and hated by the rest of the world, but never quite shared the truth of herself. Daughter of a Manchu aristocrat, granddaughter of a Boston merchant, Princess Der Ling was a fascinating human battleground of warring identities, and a figure whose life provides a glimpse into one Eurasian woman's experience of living not just between two cultures - that of China and the West. This book tells her story. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.
