TITLE   Second Best Moments in Chinese History
AUTHOR   Frank KUPPNER
DESCRIPTION   Orientalism without apology but without damage either- a musing on notions of History, Time, the Passions—via a tragi-comic 'history' of ancient China, employing all the 'received ideas' & motifs derived from Arthur Waley & other translators of classical Chinese literature. Very funny and tantalizingly sad, (mock)profound, beautiful & ironic. Kuppner is a well known Edinburgh poet.
