Shanghai Girls

Pearl and May, two beautiful sisters from Shanghai, find their lives upended when their father’s gambling debts force them into arranged marriages. Fleeing war-torn China for America, they face a harrowing journey and struggle to adapt to a new life in Los Angeles. As they navigate love, loss, and cultural clashes, their bond is tested but never broken. See’s vivid prose brings 1930s Shanghai and immigrant life in America to life, weaving a poignant tale of sisterhood, sacrifice, and resilience that will linger long after the last page.
