Divided into thematic chapters—birth and life, nature and environment, love and family, mind and memory, food and drink, war and politics, religion and spirituality, and death and afterlife—this big (10½"x14¼"), gloriously produced hardcover presents a spectacular cultural history of "the mysterious muse called China." The stories, dramatic excerpts, poetry, and bits of philosophical wisdom in China: 3,000 Years of Art and Literature range from ancient to modern, as do the gorgeous paintings, sculptures, ink drawings, and artifacts reproduced in its pages. Anyone with an appreciation for, or a curiosity about, the artistic and literary masterpieces of China will be enraptured by this exquisite volume.
