Wang Anyi; Translators: Gladys Yang, etc.

Contents: In this collection are seven stories by Wang Anyi, the most popular Chinese woman writer of Shanghai. The stories tell much about the quality of life in China in the 1980s and the different senses of value of the writer's generation. The writer has captured not only the flavor of the Chinese earth, but a lapsed moment in time. Her stories serve as a good place to start reading contemporary Chinese literature for foreign readers who are interested in China.
