Summary:
"A work of history that explores the life of an unconventional woman during the first half of the 19th century in Edo, the city that would become
Tokyo
, and a portrait of a great city on the brink of a momentous encounter with the West. The daughter of a Buddhist priest, Tsuneno was born in a rural Japanese village and was expected to live a traditional life much like her mother’s. But after three divorces, she ran away to make a life for herself in one of the largest cities in the world: Edo."
