0"China's Virginia Woolf." --The Wall Street Journal

Now in English for the first time, stories about love, sex, and migration by one of the greatest Chinese authors of the 20th century.

This new collection of work by the great Eileen Chang includes previously untranslated stories and essays from throughout her career, starting with her glamorous debut in 1940s Shanghai and continuing through the trials of her Cold War migration to Hong Kong and the U.S. East Coast and her last years as a bus-riding flaneuse on the highways and byways in Los Angeles.

"Classmates Then All Successful Now," one of Chang's finest stories, reprises the whole journey through multiple, sometimes nested time frames, while in "Flowers Adrift, Blossoms Afloat," a young woman peers into the darkness of a covered bridge that crosses between her Chinese homeland and British Hong Kong and sees a "time travel tunnel"--a fitting image, too, for this collection's half-century stretch of exquisite mindscapes from a world-class author.
