Editor's Note:
Em Imperatriz, Pearl S. Buck dá vida à incrível história de Cixi, a concubina imperial que acabaria por liderar a dinastia Ching. Nascida numa família humilde, Cixi apaixona-se pelo seu primo Jung Lu, um belo guarda imperial - mas ainda em adolescente é escolhida, com a sua irmã e centenas de outras raparigas, para ir morar para a Cidade Proibida. Destacando-se pela sua beleza, Cixi está determinada a tornar-se a preferida do Imperador, e dedica todo o seu talento e astúcia à concretização desse objetivo. Quando o Imperador morre, Cixi encontra-se numa posição que lhe dá o poder supremo, que irá manter durante quase cinquenta anos, usando-o tanto para trazer paz ao império como para promover Jung Lu, a quem amará - em segredo - para sempre.Num mundo de intrigas liderado por homens, Cixi irá tomar a seu cargo várias decisões importantes e será responsável pela modernização da China, sem que nunca tenha recebido por isso o devido crédito. Muito foi escrito sobre Cixi, mas nenhum outro romance recria a sua vida - a sua extraordinária personalidade e, ao mesmo tempo, o mundo das intrigas da Corte e o período de tumulto nacional com o qual ela lidou - tão bem como Imperatriz.
