About the author

Liu Tongyi was a Chinese novelist, essayist, poet and literary critic who writes under the pseudonym Liu Yichang (劉以鬯). He did not grow up in Hong Kong but spent the first thirty years of his life either there or in the wartime capital Chungking, where he went upon graduating from the English-speaking St John's University in 1941. It was in Chungking that he took up the profession of newspaper editing which he practised more or less continuously until his retirement in 1991. Liu came to Hong Kong in 1948, and apart from a spell in Singapore and Malaya (1952-1957), has made it his home.

Reviews

[宅女阿reen · Rating 3 out of 5]

刘先生的这本短篇小说，不能够说是每一篇都是精华，但全都能以出人意表作结尾。有些作品展现了他爱用的实验性写法，有些略为草率。
