This beguiling story is woven around the life of Fragrant Lotus, who has her fee bound in the supreme golden Lotus style when she is six years old. Events in Fragrant Lotus' life twist and unfold in a series of witty and often wicked ironies, obliterating easy distinctions between kindness and cruelty, history ad fable, forgery and authentic work.
