Lady Tan's Circle of Women by Lisa See

Tan Yunxian, who's based on a real 15th-century woman, grows up in an aristocratic family where her feet are bound and so is her future. Though she agrees to an arranged marriage, she chafes at social restrictions that say she can't work as a physician or be friends with the midwife's daughter in this richly detailed historical novel. For fans of: Marie Benedict and Victoria Christopher Murray's The Personal Librarian; Lecia Cornwall's The Woman at the Front.
