What can a woman do in an era of war and upheaval?
She cannot go to the battlefield or meddle in politics. All she has is a pen.
She is a songstress, a society lady, and a school principal.
She is a discarded wife, and also a bank president who wields economic influence.
They are all ordinary, delicate women, yet they too can become celebrated beauties remembered for generations.
