Vuelve la autora de El abanico de seda con una fabulosa historia de amor y amistad inspirada en la vida real de una mujer m?dica en la China del siglo XV

De acuerdo con los valores de Confucio, «una mujer educada es una mujer in?til , pero Tan Yunxian, nacida en una familia de ?lite, es criada en condiciones excepcionales. Su abuela es una de las pocas doctoras que hay en China, y ense?a a Yunxian los pilares de la medicina, los Cuatro Ex?menes --mirar, escuchar, tocar y preguntar--, algo que un hombre nunca puede hacer con una paciente. Desde peque?a, Yunxian aprende sobre remedios herbales y enfermedades femeninas junto a una joven comadrona, Meiling, con quien forja una gran amistad. Pero cuando Yunxian es enviada a un matrimonio concertado, su suegra le proh?be verla y ayudar a las mujeres y ni?as de la casa, pues debe cumplir con sus deberes de esposa.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

*NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER!*

From "one of those special writers capable of delivering both poetry and plot" (The New York Times Book Review) an immersive historical novel inspired by the true story of a woman physician in 15th-century China--perfect for fans of Lisa See's classics Snow Flower and the Secret Fan and Tea Girl of Hummingbird Lane.

According to Confucius, "an educated woman is a worthless woman," but Tan Yunxian--born into an elite family, yet haunted by death, separations, and loneliness--is being raised by her grandparents to be of use. Her grandmother is one of only a handful of female doctors in China, and she teaches Yunxian the pillars of Chinese medicine, the Four Examinations--looking, listening, touching, and asking--something a man can never do with a female patient.
