The Story of the Stone
บทความใน Telegraph ที่เขียนถึงวรรณกรรมอมตะของจีน ความฝันในหอแดง
What is so special about this work? Why does it continue to cast its spell on todays Chinese readers? One has to try to imagine a book that combines the qualities of Jane Austen brilliantly observed accounts of Chinese psychology and personality, meticulous depiction of an aristocratic Chinese/Manchu household with the grand sweep of a novel such as Vanity Fair or the works of Balzac. Its mood is allegorical, lyrical and philosophical. It leaves the reader with a visionary experience of the human condition, comparable to that of Proust. Its a blend of Zen Buddhism and Taoism with the underlying theme of seeing through the Red Dust beyond the illusion of earthly reality.
