"Quite apart from her contributions as a literary critic, Shu-mei
Shih is able to historicize literary developments of the period
most persuasively. Her analysis of Shanghai, the city, and the
literary movement it spawned, is crafted with great sensitivity to
both history and literature. In many ways, it is the most inclusive
historical study of modern Chinese literature in its formative
period."--Prasenjit Duara, author of "Rescuing History from the
Nation"
"This is the most thoroughly researched study of Chinese
modernism published to date. The author's theoretical interventions
greatly enrich our understanding of colonial modernity and the
stakes of comparison in cross-cultural studies. The book is a major
contribution to modern Chinese literary studies and comparative
literature."--Lydia Liu, editor of "Tokens of Exchange"
