"Shen Fu's Six Records of a Life Adrift is the most intimate document at our disposal of private life in late imperial China. Graham Sanders now provides us with a new translation for the 21st century, which is not only well researched but also highly readable". --Wilt Idema, Harvard University
This autobiographical novel, published in 1809, contains lively depictions of the powerful role of the courtesan, the arrogance of untrained officials, and the formal and often strained arranged marriages in turn-of-the-century China.
