Just a few years after the turn of the nineteenth century, a baby named Tsuneno was born to a Buddhist priest and his wife in a rural village in Japan. Exécted to live a traditional life much like her mother's, she instead grew up to be a fiery, strong-willed woman,who, after three divorces, ran away to make a life for herself in one of the largest cities in the world : Edo - now Tokyo - a bustling metrópolis at its peak. Tsuneno's life provides a window into nineteenth-century Japanese culture.
