Wandering Spirits: Chen Shiyuan???s Encyclopedia of Dreams

Wandering Spirits is a very valuable contribution to the history of Chinese dream lore and dream interpretation. Strassberg's polished translation makes available an important text previously available only to readers of Chinese.—Robert Ford Campany, author of To Live as Long as Heaven and Earth "Richard Strassberg's translation and introduction to Wandering Spirits are masterful. The contents of this remarkable collection are highly diverse, and the author's lucid prose, imagination, skill, and diligence in explanation are to be celebrated."—Robert E. Hegel, author of Reading Illustrated Fiction in Late Imperial China
