Book Description
Five centuries ago, the elemental artform of seal-binding was introduced to a world once devastated by senseless conflict. Seal binders—those with the ability to bestow seals—used their powers to bring order to the continents of Armos and Omallia. These lands prospered under the watchful eyes of the seal binders, and with the help of seal wielders—those with the ability to harness the powers of seals—the laws of the Seal-Binding Society were guarded for the years to come. Things changed, however, due to a sudden shift in the monarchy within the last 100 years. By order of a new king, the seal-binding practice was banned, and subsequently, it was decreed that the seal binders were to be executed on sight. With the widespread extermination of the seal binders came a radical increase in poverty everywhere across Armos and Omallia. In this world’s current eye, there is but one seal binder left, living in the capital city of Hitomi and serving—unwillingly—under the new royal family known as Ra. Can the integrity of the Seal-Binding Society be restored? Or will it completely deteriorate back to the ways of chaos and suffering?

The Binding Chair, Or, A Visit from the Foot Emancipation Society
Author: Kathryn Harrison
Publisher: Wheeler Publishing, Incorporated
ISBN: 9781568951393
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 438
Book Description
Beautiful, charismatic, destructive, May escapes an arranged marriage in rural nineteenth-century China for life in a Shanghai brothel. Arthur, a member of the Foot Emancipation Society, calls on May not for his pleasure but for her rehabilitation, only to find himself immediately and helplessly seduced by the sight of her bound feet. Reforming May is out of the question, so love-struck Arthur marries her instead and brings her home to live with him, his sister and brother-in-law, and their two girls, Alice and Cecily. In Alice, May sees the possibility of redemption: a surrogate for a child she has lost. It is to May that Alice turns for the love her own mother withholds. By turns shocking, exquisite, and hilarious, The Binding Chair is another spellbinding literary triumph by the writer whose work Michiko Kakutani of The New York Times has called "powerful and hypnotic".
