Reviews

‘The reader finds himself easily drawn into the very coded universe of Chinese opera, and experiences a medley of feelings, from curiosity for this little-known art for us westerners, to a growing feeling of scorn, compassion and pity for the heroine … A real moment of pleasure.’ Asia News

'Bi Feiyu demonstrates that in China, today, one can be free, even within the system.'
- Liberation
