The Island of Sea Women

by Lisa See
A story of best friends torn apart by tragedy.  And a story of women doing dangerous work while the men take care of the children. A tradition started because of an unusual tax structure of the Korean Kings in a long-ago era.  The Island of Sea Women by Lisa See  #fiction, #reading, #books to read, #books #historical fiction
