Chan's Wife: A Story is a novel written by Jessie Anderson Chase and published in 1919. The story revolves around the life of a young Chinese woman named Chan, who is married off to a wealthy merchant at a very young age. Despite her initial reluctance, Chan learns to love her husband and becomes a devoted wife. However, her happiness is short-lived as her husband dies suddenly, leaving her alone and vulnerable in a society that does not value women.As Chan struggles to find her place in the world, she is faced with a number of challenges, including discrimination, poverty, and the threat of being forced into prostitution. Through her determination and resilience, Chan manages to overcome these obstacles and emerges as a strong and independent woman.The novel explores themes of gender inequality, cultural identity, and the struggle for self-determination in a patriarchal society. It also provides a vivid and detailed portrayal of life in early 20th century China, with its complex social hierarchies, customs, and traditions.Overall, Chan's Wife: A Story is a compelling and thought-provoking work of fiction that offers a valuable insight into the lives of women in China during a time of great social and political change.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
