Peony in Love



"All women on earth-and men too, for that matter-hope for the kind of love that transforms us, raises us up out of the everyday, and gives us the courage to survive our little deaths: the heartache of unfulfilled dreams, of career and personal disappointments, of broken love affairs."

Peony in Love by Lisa See is a fascinating read that taught me a lot about China in the 17th century. Food binding, love, the Four Virtues & more.
