The Lovers is a science fiction novel by the American writer Philip José Farmer, first published in August 1952.
The story follows Laura Townsend, a young woman whose life changes drastically after an accident that left lasting effects on her ability to speak and express herself.
The novel is a fictionalized biography of Empress Dowager Cixi (Tzu Hsi), the last real ruler of China. The work follows her rise from a third-rate concubine in the Forbidden City to de facto ruler of the Qing Dynasty Chinese Empire.
The stories included in this collection were written in the period between 1920 and 1933. It is assumed that the writer found inspiration for them in his own nightmares.
