Before marrying former King Edward, Wallis Simpson spent a year in China. During this time, she struggled to get away from a bad marriage and find herself. I have to admit that this book was a bit of a yawn. I never really got to know the characters and found the story dry. I struggled to get through the pages before finally putting the book down halfway through. Overall, not a book I would reread or recommend.
Wallis simpson is a charcater that is both fascinating and intriguing,
I have always loved reading about Royal women and this historical account of her time in China is just amazing.
I loved the walk through her life while she was going through a troubled time with her husband before she became the Duchess of Windsor. .
Wallis had a love for China, the food, the culture and I loved how we learned how she became the woman that changed the world.
It is a fascinating insight and I adored reading..
