by (qing Dynasty) Layman Ai Na
About This Novel
"Bean Shed Gossip" is a collection of short stories in the vernacular of the late Ming Dynasty. This novel has several characteristics: First, it uses the story telling in bean shed as a clue to connect 12 stories together. It is similar to Western novels such as "One Thousand and One Nights" and "The Decameron". It is equivalent to China's first collection of short stories. The second is to write randomly about the injustices in the heart. Some of them seem to be writing historical stories, but in fact they are for the purpose of irony. The content is profound and meaningful, the language is fluent and the literary talent is high. It can be said to be the best work among the Ming and Qing dynasty novels.
