History of Modern Chinese Fiction FROM THE PUBLISHER
First published in 1961 and reissued in new editions several times, A History of Modern Chinese Fiction remains the most authoritative study of 20th-century Chinese fiction today. It covers some 60 years, from the Literary Revolution of 1917 through the Cultural Revolution of 1966-76.
C. T. Hsia examines the major writers from Lu Hsun to Eileen Chang and selected works of representative importance since 1949 from both mainland China and Taiwan.
