Book Descriptions:

As
a girl growing up in Hong Kong, Eva Wong heard and memorized many tales told to
her by Hong Kong's finest professional storytellers, by actors on the radio,
and by her grandmother. These popular tales of the Taoist immortals were also
often dramatized in Chinese operas.

The
stories are of famous characters in Chinese history and myth: a hero's battle
with the lords of evil, the founder of the Ming dynasty's treacherous betrayal
of his friends, a young girl who saves her town by imitating rooster calls.
Entertaining and often provocative, these tales usually include a moral. The
immortals are role models in Chinese culture, as well as examples of
enlightenment. Some of the immortals were healers, some were social activists,
some were aristocrats, and some were entrepreneurs. The tales chosen by Eva
Wong here are of the best-known immortals among the Chinese. Their names are
household words and their stories are told and retold by one generation to the
next.
