Through the journey of a young scholar, readers encounter vivid depictions of eroticism and the often hypocritical moral landscape of the time. Ideal for students, civic activists, and historians alike, this work challenges conventional narratives and invites discourse on themes of lust and virtue. Dive into Li Yu's bold narrative and discover the layers of meaning behind this controversial masterpiece.
