Examining the traditional practice of footbinding, “Every Step a Lotus” includes almost one hundred illustrations of shoes from different regions of China, material paraphernalia associated with the customs and rituals of footbinding, and historical images. With thoughtful analysis and commentary, this insightful volume examines why footbinding, long after its demise, continues to exert a powerful grip on the imagination.
