具体描述
Lily is haunted by memories-of who she once was, and of a person, long gone, who defined her existence. She has nothing but time now, as she recounts the tale of Snow Flower, and asks the gods for forgiveness. In nineteenth-century China, when wives and daughters were foot-bound and lived in almost total seclusion, the women in one remote Hunan county developed their own secret code for communication: nu shu ("women's writing"). Some girls were paired with laotongs, "old sames, " in emotional matches that lasted throughout their lives. They painted letters on fans, embroidered messages on handkerchiefs, and composed stories, thereby reaching out of their isolation to share their hopes, dreams, and accomplishments. With the arrival of a silk fan on which Snow Flower has composed for Lily a poem of introduction in nu shu, their friendship is sealed and they become "old sames" at the tender age of seven. As the years pass, through famine and rebellion, they reflect upon their arranged marriages, loneliness, and the joys and tragedies of motherhood. The two find solace, developing a bond that keeps their spirits alive. But when a misunderstanding arises, their lifelong friendship suddenly threatens to tear apart. Snow Flower and the Secret Fan is a brilliantly realistic journey back to an era of Chinese history that is as deeply moving as it is sorrowful. With the period detail and deep resonance of Memoirs of a Geisha, this lyrical and emotionally charged novel delves into one of the most mysterious of human relationships: female friendship.

The footbinding part was pretty well-written though. I seriously couldn't feel from my knees down and so wanna threw up either from the sickness or the smothering temperature. 那天跟室友小白人去coolidge corner一家以前没有发现的书店买了四本书，回来发现除了...
评分the plot development is a little bit tedious and slow as long as i'm concerned. Alos writing about chinese culture, Amy Tan's books always kept me in suspense and expect. i read about half of this novel, and kept it at that.

评分说是清朝的故事,可英文写的,怎么也看不出古味儿. 更不用说小姐妹之间里面还有亲吻拥抱. 不过这是湖南乡村,而且是瑶族. 虽然也讲三从四德,和汉族规矩不一样也未可知. 读着还是挺新奇的.
评分无比优美的一本书，可惜被电影糟蹋了
评分煽了一手好情，裹脚那段看得好揪心
