A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

RICE is the story of raw ambition and sexual potency. When Five Dragons, a poor country boy, chances his fortune in the city, his brutal humiliation at the hands of a gang of wharf rats hones his purpose to a knife-edge. His desire for power and women is insatiable, and when he marries Cloud Weave, the disgraced beautiful daughter of a wealthy rice emporium owner, and inherits the business, fulfilment beckons. But men tire easily of their playthings in this wayward family and Cloud Weave rejects the shackles of female convention. She wants to play by her own rules and they are in stark contrast to the behaviour of a man in thrall to the increasing dysfunction of his sexual obsession.
