"Many Men and One Lily" (迷人的上海百合)
// BLURB //
“The notorious White Flower of China. You've heard of me, and you always believe what you've heard.” [Shanghai Express, 1932]
“The notorious White Flower of China. You've heard of me, and you always believe what you've heard.” [Shanghai Express, 1932]
The infamous courtesans of concession-era Shanghai were beautiful, glamorous sirens, desired by men and despised by women. Even back in the halcyon days of 1930s Shanghai, a breathtaking double standard existed which dictated that “good girls” became wives and “naughty girls” could only aspire to be mistresses or escorts. Our island6 Lily tells these people where to shove it. She is bold, stunning, confident in her self-worth and determinedly irreverent. As she shrugs off the layers of her confining garments, she unveils her radiant beauty and melting vulnerability, pure as a bona fide Chinese Lily.
