Description:
New York, NY: Vintage Books/Random House, 1973. First Edition, First Thus . Soft cover. Very Good/None as Issued. Text/BRAND NEW w/margin discoloration. Softcover/VG; strong w/edge & surface wear. Classic Vietnamese narrative poem of epic length. Chronicle of young, beautiful and dutiful Kieu who, to save her family, sells herself into concubinage but to be forced into prostitution. This is a scholarly, free verse, translation by Huynh Sanh Thong (1926 - 2008) of Nugyen Du's (1766 - 1820) masterful work written in iambic luc-bat, or "six-eight verse in Vietnamese "Southern script" which requires extensive knowledge of the Chinese script. This vernacular, folk genre, was recited by story-telling bards in the land when literacy was low. Storyline closely follows the revised version of the Chinese Ming Dynasty novel entitled Chin Yun Ch'iao Chuan (biographies of Chin, Yun and Ch'iao) by Hsu Wei. Volume is rich in annotated Chinese literary allusions,.
