About This Book

The culture of China is rich with marvelous folklore and legendry that has informed its tale telling from the era of oral storytelling up through the current age of the written word. Chinese Myths and Folk Tales draws on that magnificent repository of lore, featuring more than 200 fables and folk tales drawn from Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio and other classic compendiums of traditional tales. Here are stories of ancient demons, strange ghosts, magic swords, evil sorcerers, dibolical transformations, flying ogres, fairy foxes, powerful gods, and more. Chinese Myths and Folk Tales is one of Barnes & Noble's Collectible Editionsclassics. Each volume features authoritative texts by the world's greatest authors in an exquisitely designed bonded-leather binding, with distinctive gilt edging and a ribbon bookmark. Decorative, durable, and collectible, these books offer hours of pleasure to readers young and old and are an indispensable cornerstone for every home library.
