Witty, humorous and delightful in themselves, the stories in this volume are also of historical interest. They illustrate the centuries-old popular literature of China and hold up, as it were, a mirror to the life of the people. Above all, they bring home to our consciousness the fact that human nature and feelings are much the same on the banks of the Yangtze as on the shores of the Thames or the Mississippi.
