Description:
Set in England and Hong Kong in the 1920s, The Painted ì Veil is the story of the beautiful but love-starved Kitty ì Fane. When her husband discovers her adulterous affair, he forces ì her to accompany him to the heart of a cholera epidemic. Stripped ì of the British society of her youth and the small but effective ì society she fought so hard to attain in Hong Kong, she is ì compelled by her awakening conscience to reassess her life and ì learn how to love. The Painted Veil is a beautifully written ì affirmation of the human capacity to grow, to change, and to ì forgive.
