Sequel to Strange Tales of the Hundred Bones

A human-skin lantern illuminates a ghost market in the flourishing Tang dynasty, while half a curtain of mermaid silk entwines the tangled karmic ties of the Six Dynasties. Inheriting the eerie strangeness of Miscellaneous Morsels from Youyang and the fantastical daring of Records of the Mysterious and Strange, this collection of supernatural short stories uses monsters to portray people and ghosts to satirize the world, refining modern allegories through a classical style.
