Overview: David Roy provides a complete and annotated translation of the famous Chin P’ing Mei, an anonymous sixteenth-century Chinese novel that focuses on the domestic life of Hsi-men Ch’ing, a corrupt, upwardly mobile merchant in a provincial town, who maintains a harem of six wives and concubines. This work, known primarily for its erotic realism, is also a landmark in the development of the narrative art form–not only from a specifically Chinese perspective but in a world-historical context.
