Synopsis of Los pies de la concubina

En la China de principios del siglo XX, la joven Mai es sometida al doloroso ritual de vendarse los pies, una costumbre que el gobierno prohibió en 1911. Mai huye de un matrimonio concertado y se instala en Shangai, donde trabaja en un burdel hasta que es rescatada por Arthur Cohen, un filántropo australiano que lucha por la abolición de esta práctica. Arthur se casa con ella y se la lleva a vivir a Europa con la familia de su hermana, donde Mai se siente muy unida a su sobrina Alice. Sin embargo, la familia, que teme a esa hermosa y enigmática mujer china, hará todo lo posible por separarlas. Esta novela de Kathryn Harrison explora los recónditos secretos del deseo, la rebeldía femenina contra la dominación patriarcal, la perversión y el gozo. Una intensa historia que arrastra al lector desde la China rural decimonónica a la Costa Azul de los años locos, pasando por el exótico Shangai de principios del siglo XX.
