Chapter 1 Crown Editorial Department: About Border Town Revisited

Border town revisited 张爱玲 326Words 2018-03-18
In the autumn of 1961, Eileen Chang first visited Taiwan and then Hong Kong. In March 1963, Eileen Chang wrote an English travel note "A Return To The Frontier" and published it in the American magazine "The Reporter", which aroused great repercussions in the Taiwanese literary circle at that time. In November 2007, Song Yilang, the heir to Eileen Chang's estate, discovered an extremely precious manuscript from boxes of Eileen Chang's documents at home——————————————————————————————————————— Experience, the complete travel notes written down! Surprisingly, it is not a direct translation from the English version, but a rewritten version by Eileen Chang.

Taiwan and Hong Kong are both "border towns" in Zhang Ailing's eyes. Through her eyes, we seem to travel through time and see a Taiwan full of unique vitality and the ordinary life in Hong Kong in the old days. [Editor's Note: Due to the age of this manuscript, some handwriting has been blurred and difficult to read. To respect the author, blank spaces are used here. 】
