Abstract: | As the fourth daughter of the Kwok Bews', a prestigious family in charge of the Wing On Department Store in Shanghai in the early 20th century, Daisy Kwok was born with a silver spoon in her mouth. The changes of times, however, deprived her of her material life as a "princess." For more than three decades she suffered torment: the loss of her husband, her normal life, her property and her family, but she remained optimistic with pride and dignity. She survived the ups and downs of life without becoming embittered or broken-hearted Captivated by Daisy's beauty of spirit and optimism, her charm and wit, pride and dignity, and after interviewing her informally for two years, Chen Danyan, one of the most popular writers in China, transformed Daisy's legendary experiences into words. This elegant Shanghai "princess" is sure to touch people's hearts with her optimism, strong will, kindness, elegance ... --Book Jacket |
