Resentful of these talents, Linjing does everything in her power to keep Little Flower under her thumb.

Little Flower suddenly sees a path to freedom through her skill when she catches the eye of a nobleman. But there is a huge risk: the Sisterhood punishes disobedience with death. And if Linjing finds out, will she use this knowledge to reclaim her power over Little Flower, or will she protect her?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRichly atmospheric and profoundly moving, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Lotus Shoes\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e is an empowering tale of two women from opposite sides of society and their extraordinary journey of sisterhood, betrayal, love and triumph.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Wide Genre","offers":[{"title":"Soft Cover","offer_id":47516409004252,"sku":null,"price":25.0,"currency_code":"AED","in_stock":true},{"title":"Hard Cover","offer_id":47516409037020,"sku":null,"price":30.0,"currency_code":"AED","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0809\/2044\/5148\/files\/5_267feb43-bf41-47e8-a3f4-af5391073410.png?v=1769855919","url":"https:\/\/widegenre.com\/products\/the-lotus-shoes-by-jane-yang","provider":"WideGenre","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
