Floating on Clouds - Paperback

by Susan Wan Dolling (Author)

My China in Tang Poetry is a personal celebration of the genius of the Golden Age of Chinese poetry. Susan Wan Dolling, writer, teacher and storyteller provides a feast of new translations and readings of the poetry with consummate knowledge, understanding and an enthusiasm that is infectious. In her telling, these stories and poems are not archaic or hard, but engaging and alive.

Volume Two, Floating on Clouds, gives us two men described as recluses, Meng Haoran and Wang Wei, and the so-called "Four Female Talents of the Tang Era", Li Ye, Xue Tao, Liu Caicun and Yu Xuanji.
