Shanghai Girls by Lisa See tells the story of sisters Pearl and May Chin, two glamorous Shanghai models sold into arranged marriages to Chinese-American men in California during the 1930s, following their father's financial ruin and the onset of the Japanese invasion. The novel chronicles their harrowing journey to America, their struggles with difficult in-laws, immigration challenges, prejudice, and the enduring, yet complex, bond between them, exploring themes of sisterhood, survival, and the immigrant experience across two decades (1937-1957).
