The Hearts of Teahouse Women: Stories from Wanhua's Red-Light District

The Hearts of Teahouse Women: Stories from Wanhua's Red-Light District was curated by Pearl Home and written by author Li Wen-Hsuan, documenting the life stories of twelve sisters from Wanhua's teahouses.

This book doesn't sensationalize or judge — it honestly lets each woman speak for herself: how she came to walk this path, how she lives within it, and how she was found by love. Since publication, the book has been selected as a featured title by Eslite and Books.com.tw, and has been a finalist for several annual book awards.

Purchasing the book is itself an act of support — proceeds go toward accompanying more marginalized women. Please see the "The Hearts of Teahouse Women" page for details.
