Eileen Chang is one of the great writers of twentieth-century
China, where she enjoys a passionate following both on the mainland
and in Taiwan. At the heart of Chang's achievement is her short
fiction - tales of love, longing, and the shifting and endlessly
treacherous shoals of family life. Written when she was still in
her twenties, these extraordinary stories combine an unsettled,
probing, utterly contemporary sensibility, keenly alert to sexual
politics and psychological ambiguity, with an intense lyricism that
echoes the classics of Chinese literature. Love in a Fallen City,
the first collection in English of this dazzling body of work,
introduces readers to the stark and glamorous vision of a modern
master.
