Arthur Waley here presents an engrossing account of the works and life of Yuan Mei (1716-1797), the best-known poet of his time. Gaiety is the keynote of his works and the poet was a friend of the Manchu official with whom Commodore Anson had dramatic dealings at Canton in 1743.

Recenzii

'The quotations, many of them poems of the most exquisite quality; the anecdotes, always with a flavour quintessentially Chinese, illumine the whole period with so brilliant a glow that Yuan Mei ambles among us, laughing and chatting and pausing to sip tea. The whole picture is profoundly human and quite unforgettable.' - The Times Literary Supplement
