Rate this book
《吉陵春秋》写的是不知神州何处的一个小镇——吉陵,镇上有一条烟花巷唤作万福巷。娼寮聚集中却有一家棺材铺子,女主人长笙素颜白衣,如污泥中的白莲,却不知那样清纯的美会变成一种诅咒。六月十九迎神夜,全镇人在巷口看迎神,泼皮孙四房起歹意乘机作恶,长笙被辱自尽,丈夫刘老实发狂杀了孙四房的相好和老婆,锒铛入狱。后报载刘老实越狱,吉陵镇上便谣传他要回来复仇。长笙被辱当日谁人没有罪?风声鹤唳,人人疑神疑鬼,说是长笙的冤魂白昼作祟,复仇者坐在苦楝树下等人……《吉陵春秋》全书以“十二瓣观音莲”的方式,用十二个互相联系的篇章将这个中心场景补全和升华,将读者的心一直提着到最后都不得解。

Not sure if a lot was lost in translation or cultural context would've added a bunch, but I didn't get much beyond shock factor from this?
