The Wooing of Wistaria follows the life of a vicarious and bubbly young Japanese woman, Lady Wistaria. Beginning with her presentation to high society, Wistaria reflects on her experience meeting the court. Accompanied by her aunt, who was her guardian, Wistaria visits the capitol city for the first time, enamored by the sights. She enters the court knowing all that was expected of her. The court is in awe of her beauty, but when Wistaria makes a small mistake, she is immediately shamed. Though Wistaria is kind, beautiful, and full of personality, she is consistently judged throughout her life for her qualities that conflict with society's standards. This is especially evident in her relationship to her father, who is a stoic and harsh man. Dedicated to upholding the social expectations and etiquette, Wistaria's father is tough on her, and despite her reflections, Wistaria never really understands why.

Featuring beautiful and detailed descriptions of Japanese landscapes, the physical environment of Japan is represented as vividly as the cultural and social atmosphere. With themes of gender and sexuality, The Wooing of Wistaria is thought-provoking and enlightening on the constructs of Asian femininity. Through the characterization of Lady Wistaria, The Wooing of Wistaria portrays a bright and cheery young woman who does not fit the role she is expected to fill.
