ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

"Snow Flower and the Secret Fan" by Lisa See tells the story of Lily and Snow Flower, two women in 19th-century China who form a laotong (a lifelong bond). Their relationship unfolds against a backdrop of footbinding, arranged marriages, and limited opportunities for women.

The novel explores their deep emotional connection, expressed through nu shu, a secret women's writing. As they navigate the challenges of marriage, motherhood, and societal expectations, their bond is tested by betrayal and misunderstandings. The story examines themes of friendship, love, and the constraints placed on women in a patriarchal society, highlighting their struggles for connection and self-expression.
