Keith West traces, with graceful detail, the life of a young girl in fourteenth century China and her search for personal and romantic love in a society steeped in the tenets of Confucian propriety.
Peony is written with the same beauty of language and feeling that hallmarks Keith West's earlier novels. His characters are depicted with such richness of colour that the reader feels drawn into the world of some ancient and beautiful Chinese painting.
