Returning to Tang: The Tale of Jin Rong

Synopsis of The Tang Dynasty: The Story of Jin Rong

She lost her father at one, left her hometown of Tangjiawan at eight, and spent half her life adrift, buffeted by misfortune.

At thirty-four, she headed north alone. From making a living on the streets to establishing herself in the worlds of calligraphy and painting, she started from nothing and weathered life’s ups and downs, putting down roots through sheer courage. She founded a poetry society and pursued glory, tasting every joy and sorrow while remaining true to her original aspirations.

After half a lifetime of hardship and a long journey through wind and dust, she finally found her way home amid the ebb and flow of time. This is the story of a woman’s half-life spent resisting fate and reconciling with her past, a soul’s long journey across mountains and seas, ultimately returning to its true self and home.
