by Wang Tao
About This Novel
The genre and subject matter of "Songyin Manglu" are imitated by Pu Songling's "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio", but the scope of the material is wider than that of "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio", including many stories about Japanese geishas such as "The Story of Japanese Girl A Chuan", "The Beauty of Willow Bridge", "Seventeen Famous Flowers in the North Bridge", "Japanese Talented Girl" and European beauties "Biography of Mei Li". "Songyin Man Lu" is Wang Tao's "recollection of what he has seen and heard in the past thirty years, and the things that can sing and be shocking, and talk about the eleventh, some touching the past, some reminiscing about old hatred... Alternating with tears." It is also known as "Strange Pictures from a Chinese Studio" "Shuo" and "Stories from a Chinese Studio after Drawing" are a collection of classical Chinese short stories printed by Wang Tao of the Qing Dynasty in the early years of Guangxu (1875); each article was originally published in the supplement "Pictured" of Shanghai's "Shenbao", which lasted for more than three years.
