Chinese Ghost Stories for Adults: Sex, Love, and Murder Between Spirits and Mortals
Questions about the existence of ghosts and spirits have puzzled mankind for thousands of years. China is the oldest of civilized nations, and as such it is no stranger to ghost stories and the mysteries of the unexplained.
In fact, Liao-Tsai by Pu Sung-ling (1640-1715) has been unanimously and academically acknowledged as one of the foremost works not only in Chinese literature, but in the entire field of ghost stories.
Liau Tsai contains more than four hundred short stories. All are vividly personalized accounts of ghosts and spirits interloping in the world of humans. Most retain super-natural power and appear in human form in the physical world.
In Chinese Ghost Stories, Tom Te-Wu Ma translates selections from this Chinese work, providing for the first time a collection that is sure to satisfy and entertain English-speaking readers the way the original has entertained the Chinese for centuries.
