Beschreibung
"e;The Story of the Stone"e; (c. 1760), also known as "e;The Dream of the Red Chamber"e;, is one of the greatest novels of Chinese literature. The fifth part of Cao Xueqin's magnificent saga, "e;The Dreamer Awakes"e;, was carefully edited and completed by Gao E some decades later. It continues the story of the changing fortunes of the Jia dynasty, focussing on Bao-yu, now married to Bao-chai, after the tragic death of his beloved Dai-yu. Against such worldly elements as death, financial ruin, marriage, decadence and corruption, his karmic journey unfolds. Like a sleepwalker through life, Bao-yu is finally awakened by a vision, which reveals to him that life itself is merely a dream, 'as moonlight mirrored in the water'.
