Synopsis

The country has lost its ruler, and Heaven’s mandate has passed elsewhere.

Yet there stands a young man: his lips are not red, his teeth are not white, his clothes are not fine, his horse is not spirited. His belly holds no poetry or learning, and his heart harbors no great ambition.

Still, he laughs as he talks of half a lifetime of romance turning into a path to the clouds, and laments that reviving a golden age is hardest of all amid its very splendor.

People say that seizing the moment is the highest of strategies.

(This classical Chinese novel was written when the author was in high school, drawing widely on classmates’ anecdotes to create a fictional tale. Looking back, it has many flaws, but I am posting it here unchanged, as a keepsake.)

(I may later start another book and rewrite its story in modern vernacular.)
