This collected stories presents six Asian women of different ages to tell the experiences, traditions, cultures, and religions from six countries: a woman selling monk clothes in Yangon, traveling back to the north of the Philippines, an internal love of an old woman in a village in Malaysia, the private life of a supermodel on the highest floor of a skyscraper in Jakarta, a girl's traumatic wound in rural India, to a girl's memory of a white elephant in Thailand."This is the life story of ordinary women from various social backgrounds, of different ages and destinies, told from the perspective of a man, Stefano Romano, who has dedicated more than twenty years to the study and dissemination of Asian knowledge in Italy."(Antonia Soriente, University of Naples L'Orientale)
