Friends and Lovers: My China in Tang Poetry Book 3 (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9789888904075)

My China in Tang Poetry is a personal celebration of the genius of the Golden Age of Chinese poetry. Susan Wan Dolling, writer, teacher and storyteller provides a feast of new translations and readings of the poetry with consummate knowledge, understanding and an enthusiasm that is infectious. In her telling, these stories and poems are not archaic or hard, but engaging and alive.

Volume Three, Friends and Lovers, offers poets from the mid- to late-Tang periods, including two pairs of exiled poets and close friends, Liu Zongyuan and Liu Yuxi, Bai Juyi and Yuan Zhen, and selections from three Late Tang sensations, Li He, Du Mu and Li Shangyin.
