by Jianren Wu (Author), Elizabeth Weber (Translator)
One of China's first works of science fiction, New Story of the Stone is a belated twentieth-century sequel to the beloved eighteenth-century masterpiece Story of the Stone (more famously known as Dream of the Red Chamber). The story follows protagonist Jia Baoyu, borrowed from the original Story, as he is dramatically hurled forward over a hundred years from his own time into a bewildering future: first the decadent semicolonized late Qing China of the author's own time and later an astonishing high-tech Confucian utopia called the Realm of Civilization.
Wu Jianren (1866-1910) was a leading figure of the late Qing literary scene, best known as a writer of satirical exposé fiction and influential romances. His other notable works include Strange Events Eye-Witnessed Over Twenty Years and Sea of Regret.
