Notes

Description
Kitty Fane is the beautiful but shallow wife of Walter, a bacteriologist stationed in Hong Kong. When Walter discovers her adulterous affair, he forces her to accompany him to the heart of a cholera epidemic in rural China. Stripped of the British society of her youth and the small but effective society she fought so hard to attain in Hong Kong, she is compelled by her awakening conscience to reassess her life and learn how to love.
