About This Novel

This book is compiled by Sun Mengying, the former general manager of Wangkai Photography Co., Ltd., And is one of the series of books "Photography: Shanghai 1843-1949". This book mainly describes the marriage and love status of women during the Republic of China, but the selected characters are relatively unique. In the marriage and love relationship, these women all played the role of concubines and had a humble status. The Republic of China was an era of alternation between the old and the new, and this alternation between the old and the new is particularly evident in the women focused on in this book. On the one hand, they are new women in the new era, from movie stars Hu Ping and Zhang Zhiyun to swimmer Yang Xiuqiong, and Yunji's hairdresser. They have become very successful in their careers, showing their independent and self-reliant side. However, on the other hand, in their marriage and love life, due to various circumstances, their family identities are not as independent as they appear in social life. The identities of an independent woman and an old concubine are concentrated in one woman at the same time. Such a contrast creates a story-like ups and downs in her life.
