Attualmente non vi sono conversazioni su questo libro. ![]() ![]() I love historical fiction that gives us a glimpse of portions of history we haven't heard a lot about. In this new adventure/mystery set in 1900 San Francisco, a medical mystery highlights the tension between Chinese Americans and white San Francisco residents. Issues of class, race, and gender are everywhere, not to mention the pretty scary state of medical knowledge at the time! What an interesting book to read during a pandemic! The discussions of the role of competing financial interests and racial and class biases in crafting public health policy, distribution of treatment, and dissemination of information are very relevant, as is the issue of vaccine hesitancy. Aside from the timeliness, this is quite an enjoyable read about a young woman trying to find her way in the world.
