Pigeon Pair, CEO's Burning Love
Tang Guoguo was pregnant. Baby's dad was a cool CEO who especially despised her. The first words they said were: "Woman, give birth to your child and take the money to leave." She moved into a man's house to get a baby, and every day she was trembling with fear. In the end, the CEO wasn't in the right mood. The first day, come over, the husband hugs. The next day, come over. On the third day ... Later, Tang Guoguo lay paralyzed on the bed, powerless to retort: "What happened to the money?" The man chuckled in her ear. "Who said he wanted me?" Tang Guoguo: "No, get lost!" The man snapped his fingers, and a pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses cried out, "Mommy will choose daddy! "We have as much money as we want!"
Sui-Tang Changʻan
Chang'an was the most important city in early imperial China, yet this is the first comprehensive study of the Sui-Tang capital in the English language. Following a background sketch of the earlier Han dynasty Chang'an and an analysis of the canonical and geomantic bases of the layout of the Sui-Tang capital, this volume focuses on the essential components of the city--its palaces, central and local administrative quarters, ritual centers, marketplaces, residential wards, and monasteries. Based on careful textual and archaeological research, this volume gives a sense of why Sui-Tang Chang'an was considered the most spectacular metropolis of its age. Victor C. Xiong is Associate Professor of Asian History and Chair of East Asian Studies, Western Michigan University. He has written several articles on the urban, cultural, and socioeconomic history of early imperial China, with special focus on the Sui-Tang period.

The fox cat substituted for the crown prince
This Peking Opera tale from the Song Dynasty was the likely catalyst for Carlo Gozzi's The Green Bird. Newly translated and adapted, it contains the original Chinese text on facing pages. Paired with The Green Bird, the two plays vividly contrast the dramaturgy of two diverse cultures within the same basic story.
