Mao Dun published both of these short stories, "The Shop of the Lin Family" and "Spring Silkworms, " in 1932. The first tells the story of a shop selling foreign goods in a small town in China, which Zhu Ziqing considers the best work written by Mao Dun. The second is about a silk weaver, Old Tong Bao, who takes very good care of his silkworms, until the armed conflicts caused by the Japanese in Shanghai in 1932 ruined his business. The stories are available here for the first time in traditional Chinese characters.

Written in 1957, Teahouse is Lao She's tour de force masterwork of Chinese drama: a play in three acts spanning fifty years with a cast of over sixty characters drawn from all levels of society. Brought together over the daily ritual of tea and conversation, the characters reflect on the changes in their own lives as well as in China as a whole. As a work of drama, Teahouse has been studied and performed worldwide in many languages. This new edition, based on John Howard-Gibbon's classic English translation, will appeal to those interested in theater arts and the history of drama and stagecraft as well as those interested in Chinese history. Lao She (1899–1966) is the pen name of Sheyu Shu. He is the author of numerous works of fiction including Rickshaw Boy .
