China's Ideals and Perplexities
Mien-hwa Chiang
China's Ideals and Perplexities seeks to allow advanced learners a deeper look into Modern Chinese culture and history by presenting the works of several Modern Chinese authors, including Shi Tiesheng, Lu Xinhua, and Mao Zedong.
An introduction (in English) places each story in its historical context. Stories and vocab lists are provided in both simplified and traditional characters. Grammar notes and exercises, written in simplified characters, accomany each lesson.
