Description

As Equals: The Oei Women of Java is the story of Hui-Lan, Ida and Lucy, daughters and wife of Java's Sugar King and Asia's richest man at the turn of the 20th century — Oei Tiong Ham. Born at the height of Sinophobic fears, Western imperialism and the eugenics movement, the three became the epitome of the modern woman. They punctured through cultural stereotypes, defied social conventions and boldly brushed aside the double burden of being born Chinese and female. Their life stories intertwined with two parallel narratives: the glamourous and dark sides of modernity.

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
