Anchee Min, The Last Empress. In conversation with novelist Aimee Liu. The sequel to Min’s critically-acclaimed, internationally bestselling Empress Orchid covers the decades of the last half of the 19th century, a violent, tumultuous period in China’s history marked by humiliating foreign incursions and domestic rebellion, ultimately ending in the demise of the Ch’ing dynasty.
