4.0 out of 5 stars Lust Caution, 26 Oct 2009
By J. WALLACE (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Eileen Chang's stories were recommended to me by a Chinese friend. I found these very, very different to the type of writing by contemporary Chinese authors that I was familar with (novels and stories either in translation, or by Chinese writers living in the English-speaking world and writing in English). At first I found them difficult reading. The different narrative style and the cultural knowledge they assumed, were too alien for them to be an easy read for me. But the more I persevered, the more I appreciated them, and I will probably re-read all the stories. There is an understated quality, an indirectness, which makes you work hard as a reader at times, but which makes each story memorable. The range and depth of the characters and relationships in each story meant that in the end I found the whole collection of stories a very satisfying read.
