Illustrated by
Joseph F. Abboreno.
The temptations and tribulations of Ho Yi, a famous archer god, make a fine saga. His story, told in several segments, is one of four complex tales, and there are three smaller stories interspersed among them. Fu's liberally adapted tellings draw on tales from the oral tradition that were set in writing during several periods of Chinese literary history. An exceptional bibliography is provided.
