Cinderella's Sisters
Debunks myths and misconceptions about footbinding's origins, development, and eventual end, exploring in the process the entanglements of male power and female desires during the practice's thousand-year history. This book presents a picture of the practice from its beginnings in the tenth century to its demise in the twentieth century.
