Long revered as a classic work of Chinese literature, "Six Chapters of a Floating Life," is the autobiographical narrative of Shen Fu, a young poet and painter whose passion for life and devotion to his beloved wife Yun have won him a place in the hearts of his readers for more than a hundred years. Shen Fu manages to weave a complex tale of romance, camaraderie, family obligation, social inequity, and human tragedy, imbued throughout with buoyant humor, profound pathos, and transcendent mysticism. This book is full of vivid illustrations and particularly appeals to young readers.
