| 520 | _a"Tuen, Slave and Empress" by Kathleen Gray Nelson is a historical novel likely written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around Tuen, a young girl who is sold into slavery and later rises to prominence at the Imperial Court of China, ultimately becoming the Empress-dowager. The book explores themes of resilience, social status, and the intricacies of life in a historical setting marked by turmoil and gender constraints. The opening of the novel introduces a setting ravaged by the great Tai-ping rebellion, showcasing a family, Niu Tsang and his wife, struggling for survival in a desolate landscape. As they search for shelter, they stumble upon a dismantled temple, a sign of the devastation that has swept through their homeland. Niu Tsang is devoted to his family and reflects on the past, while Tuen, a pivotal figure who is initially mentioned in relation to her family's plight, is discovered as a significant character destined for greater things. The rich narrative hints at her future importance as the family navigates hardship, showcasing the contrast between their struggles and Tuen's eventual rise to power.
