One of the world's greatest fantasy novels, and a timeless classic of Chinese literatureOne of China's Four Great Classical Novels, Monkey King was written anonymously during the Ming dynasty and is most commonly attributed to Wu Cheng'en, the son of a silk-shop clerk from east China. It recounts a Tang-dynasty monk's quest for Buddhist scriptures, accompanied by an omni-talented kung-fu Monkey King called Sun Wukong; a rice-loving divine pig; and a depressive man-eating river-sand monster.Comparable to The Canterbury Tales or Don Quixote, the tale is at once a comic adventure story, a humorous satire of Chinese bureaucracy, a spring of spiritual insight and an extended allegory in which the group of pilgrims journeys towards enlightenment.

90 classic titles celebrating 90 years of Penguin Books<BR><BR>'But how sweet a fruit the 'suppose' must be, that people will sup and sup on it! A juicy fruit, like a lychee but without the pit, sparkling and light green: a fruit that hides the tart within the sweet.'<BR><BR>In this haunting collection of stories, a young man's obsession leads to tragedy and a woman's bitterness poisons a family's legacy. In delicate, piercing prose, Chang captures a world of quiet cruelties and calamitous desires in pre-revolutionary China.

Whether real or imaginary journeys by plane or in virtual reality, the poems of Chinese poet Yin Xiaoyuan construct a sort of parallel reality made up of electric fields, sudden apparitions, and transient epiphanies described with scientific accuracy and pegged into a meticulously calculated sequence of events. The view of nature, in physical and atmospheric values, dialogues in counterpoint with a virtual tributary of today's technological culture, where travel conditions suddenly ignite, as if by internal combustion, references to the fantastic (here the Russian, the spiders of Kafka, and the Lautreamontian memory...) which give rise to rapid and fleeting triggers like those of the short films that are so fashionable today. So, reality and "reality" alternate and confuse, presenting scenes of a dream that the author provides, not without irony (especially in the dialogues), along with the premise (C. G. Jung), the script, and the interpretation.The result is a singular textuality, explicitly transgeneric, serial and fluvial, the result of multiple contaminations between literature and science, between visual art and storytelling, in an orderly chaoticism that seems to open the palette of the text to every action, and then fade in the endings like a visionary film modernly adorned with high definition, without any figure prevailing or remaining. It is akin to a poetic video game, with the original and fascinating features of post-subjective pyrotechnics. This term refers to the explosive and subjective nature of the poet's expression.Fabio Scotto

Mit diesen Gedichten stellt sich Wu Yin Ching in eine Reihe mit anderen Hongkong-Autor*innen wie Xi Xi und Leung Ping-kwan, die über ihre Stadt mit ihren Menschen, ihrer Geschichte und Natur geschrieben haben. Wu Yin Chings Texte zeigen einen klaren, originellen Blick auf die Welt und bringen uns Erfahrungen einer Gegenwarts-Autorin aus Hongkong nahe."Gedichte aus dem Tiefengrund einer schnellen, oft zu schnellen Stadt, sprachliche Bilder, Erinnerungen und intime Porträts aus dem alltäglichen Leben Hongkongs, aufgezeichnet mit scharfer Beobachtungsgabe und tiefer Empathie: die Gedichte von Wu Yin Ching, um Familie, Beziehungen und Verlust, Wandel und Widerstandskraft kreisend, führen mit literarischer Kraft durch die menschlichen Tiefendieser asiatischen Metropole und hallen nach."

Leere Saiten lädt seine Leserinnen und Leser zu einer besonderen Begegnung ein - einer Begegnung zweier Buchwelten: der modernen deutschen Buchgestaltung und der traditionellen chinesischen.Auf der Vorderseite beginnt der deutsche Teil mit Titelblatt, Inhaltsverzeichnis und Angaben. Hier liest man wie gewohnt von links nach rechts. Wendet man das Buch und schlägt es von hinten auf, betritt man den chinesischen Teil. Seine Texte folgen der klassischen Schriftführung: von oben nach unten und von rechts nach links.Damit sich diese Lesefolge auch typografisch abbildet, wurden die Seiten des chinesischen Teils in um-gekehrter Reihenfolge gebunden. Wer das Buch von der deutschen Seite aus aufschlägt, wird daher be-merken, dass die Seitenzahlen im chinesischen Teil "rückwärts" laufen - doch dank des deutschen Inhalts-verzeichnisses findet man sich mühelos zurecht.Zugleich wahrt das Buch zwei Ordnungen: Die deutsche Vorderseite entspricht der hiesigen Lesegewohnheit, die chinesische Rückseite knüpft an eine jahrhundertealte Buchtradition an. Zwei Richtungen, zwei Kulturen - jede folgt ihrer eigenen Logik, ohne die andere zu verdrängen. Das scheinbare Gegeneinander von vorn und hinten, von "vorwärts" und "rückwärts", verwebt sich so zu einer stillen Harmonie.Diese Architektur eröffnet drei Erfahrungsräume: einen rein deutschen Teil, einen deutsch-chinesischen Parallelteil und einen rein chinesischen Teil. Insbesondere der Parallelteil mit den Erläuterungen zu Kalli-grafien und Malereien lädt dazu ein, Kunst und Dichtung gleichermaßen zu erkunden: Selbst ohne Chinesischkenntnisse kann man mithilfe der deutschen Titel durch die Bilder wandern und dabei zwischen Schrift und Malerei schweifen.Die bedachte Abfolge dieser Abschnitte schafft Brücken und Übergänge, fordert den Perspektivwechsel heraus und macht das Umblättern zu einer kleinen kulturellen Entdeckungsreise - ein Band, zwei Schrifttraditionen, drei Lesewelten, ein Dialog.Alle in diesem Buch versammelten Gedichte sind in chinesischer Sprache verfasst.

A luminous new translation of one of the greatest poets in Chinese history<BR><BR>Li Qingzhao is justly celebrated for her place in Chinese literary history. She was a poet with a wry, unsentimental style and a rich sense of melody. Her ci - lyrics that were originally set to music - are glorious in their depth and genius, spare and arresting on the line. They evoke with rare immediacy the haunting beauty of country life during the Song dynasty; the unseen, restive labour of the poet; and Li Qingzhao's bracing take on what it means to create art as a woman in the shadow of exile, war, imprisonment, and an unwelcoming literary establishment.<BR><BR>In Wendy Chen's splendid new translation, each poem is as sharp and fresh as the edge of a new spring leaf. These richly textured bolts of melody are masterpieces of verse, as resonant and bracing today as they were in the eleventh century; and they underscore Li Qingzhao status as a necessary and iconic literary figure.

90 Classic titles celebrating 90 years of Penguin Books<BR><BR>Razor-sharp, pugnacious and blackly funny, Wang Xiaobo's essays established him as one of China's most popular - and subversive - writers. From the political power of silence to the irrepressible spirit of a pig he met while working in a commune, these reflections on life and literature in the shadow of the Cultural Revolution provide a rare glimpse of a fearless satirical genius.

A primer for those with no previous knowledge of Chinese, this book introduces readers to the fundamentals of classical Chinese poetry through twenty-nine ways of understanding a single poem. "Seeing Off a Friend," by the great Tang poet Li Bai (701-762) has long been praised for its vividness, subtlety, and poignancy. Anthologizing twenty-nine translations of the poem, Timothy Billings not only introduces the poem's richness and depth but also the nuanced art of translating Chinese poetry into European languages. A famous exemplar of "seeing off poetry," which was common in an empire whose literati were continually on the move, Li's poem has continued to fascinate readers far removed from its moment of composition, from the Victorians, to Ezra Pound, to contemporary translators from around the world. In talking us through these linguistic crossings, Billings unpacks the intricacies of the lüshi or "regulated verse poem," a form as pivotal to Chinese literature as the sonnet is to European tradition. This book promises to transform its readers, step-by-step, into adept interpreters of one of the most significant verse forms in Chinese literary history. Billings's engaging teaching style, backed by a lightly worn but deep scholarly engagement with Chinese poetry, makes this work an indispensable guide for anyone interested in poetry, translation, or the cultural heritage of China.

If I Do Not Reply is the first UK collection by Hong Kong poet Tammy Lai-Ming Ho, and brings us a welcome new voice to speak of matters in a place too often seen through expatriate, rather than native eyes. Hong Kong may once have been a borrowed place, on borrowed time, situated physically in one world, and mentally somewhere between two, but its current uncomfortable position finds an apt chronicler here.

**From the 25th U.S. Poet Laureate** **Winner of the 2024 National Book Foundation Science + Literature Award** An affordable paperback edition of the Collected Works of the one of the most astonishing poets writing today: U.S. Poet Laureate Arthur Sze<BR> The Glass Constellation is a triumph spanning five decades, including ten poetry collections and twenty-six new poems, from National Book Award winner Arthur Sze. Sze began his career writing compressed, lyrical poems influenced by classical Chinese poetry; he later made a leap into powerful polysemous sequences, honing a distinct stylistic signature that harnesses luminous particulars, and is sharply focused, emotionally resonant, and structurally complex. Fusing elements of Chinese, Japanese, Native American, and various Western experimental traditions―employing startling juxtapositions that are always on target, deeply informed by concern for our endangered planet and troubled species―Sze presents experience in all its multiplicities, in singular book after book. This collection is an invitation to immerse in a visionary body of work, mapping the evolution of one of our finest American poets.
