The internationally bestselling author of Paris and New York takes on an exhilarating new world with his trademark epic style in China: The Novel
"The unparalleled master of the historical saga." --Newsweek
In China The Novel, Edward Rutherfurd brings his renowned talents to the Middle Kingdom, when the clash of East and West in the nineteenth century shattered the stability of the two-thousand-year-old empire. This epic tale chronicles the great struggle for power, from the Opium Wars that erupted in 1839 through the Taiping revolt, the British burning of the Summer Palace, the Boxer Rebellion, and the long rule of the Dragon Empress, culminating in the momentous revolution of 1911. Rutherfurd brings to vivid life the ever-changing fortunes of Chinese, British, and American families as they negotiate the tides of history. We meet a young village wife struggling with rigid traditions, Manchu empresses and warriors, powerful eunuchs of the Forbidden City, rapacious English soldiers and earnest missionaries, savvy Chinese pirates and sage philosophers, artists, concubines, scoundrels, and heroes. At its heart a rich human drama of a fascinating moment in history, China: The Novel is the enthralling story of a rising global power.
