Wonderful tales of the power of women.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Rice Bowl Women: Writings by and about the Women of China and Japan (Mass Market Paperback)
Rice Bowl Women is a fabulous collection of stories, old and new, that speak of the warrior spirit in every woman. From ancient tales of China, where women train in the skills of sword and sorcery, to more modern tales of women achieving power and realizing their inherent strength during the cultural reforms of communism. This book explores the tradition of the swordswoman in the far East, cultures more widely known for their subservient feminine roles.

This review is from: Rice Bowl Women: Writings by and about the Women of China and Japan (Mass Market Paperback)
Wonderful tales about Asia -- a peek into other cultures. I especially appreciate the insights into women's lives and their roles throughout the history of China and Japan. So different than the West. Reading about Asia and travel to these parts of the world are the only bridges we have between the West and the East.
