Focusing on the lives of imperial women overshadowed by powerful men, Joan Smith sheds light on their struggles against violence and control in a male-dominated society. Through a reinterpretation of historical narratives, she reveals the tragic fates of these women—often victims of rape and murder—who have been largely erased from history. Smith's work challenges the misogynistic portrayals of these figures, highlighting their resilience and resistance, while connecting their experiences to ongoing issues of domestic abuse and women's rights today.
