Description
As Peony, the 5-year-old daughter of the wealthy Chen family, approaches an arranged marriage, she commits an unthinkable breach of etiquette when she accidentally comes upon a man who has entered the family garden. Unusually for a girl of her time, Peony has been educated and revels in studying "The Peony Pavilion", a real opera published in 1598, as the repercussions of the meeting unfold. The novels plot mirrors that of the opera, and eternal themes abound: an intelligent girl chafing against the restrictions of expected behavior; fictions educative powers; the rocky path of love between lovers and in families.
