La Pintora de Shanghai= The Painter from Shanghai

Desde las aguas pantanosas del Yangtsé y los desaseados cuartos interiores del Salón del Esplendor Eterno hasta el estridente encanto del Shangai anterior a la guerra y el París bohemio de los años veinte, para volver de nuevo a una China desgarrada por la guerra civil y los albores de la revolución, esta novela cuenta la historia de Pan Yuliang, una de las más talentosas y provocadoras figuras del arte chino del siglo XX. / Jennifer Cody Epstein's epic brings to life the woman behind the lush, Cezannesque nude self-portraits, capturing with lavish detail her life in the brothel and then as a concubine to a Republican official who would ultimately help her find her way as an artist. Moving with the tide of historical events, The Painter from Shanghai celebrates a singularly daring painting style one that led to fame, notoriety, and, ultimately, a devastating choice: between Pan's art and the one great love of her life.
