An Oprah Daily Top 25 Fantasy Book of 2022
**
From an award-winning team of authors, editors, and translators**
comes a groundbreaking short story collection that explores the
expanse of Chinese science fiction and fantasy.
In The Way Spring Arrives and Other Stories, you can dine at a
restaurant at the end of the universe, cultivate to immortality in the
high mountains, watch roses perform Shakespeare, or arrive at the island
of the gods on the backs of giant fish to ensure that the world can
bloom.
Written, edited, and translated by a female and nonbinary team, these
stories have never before been published in English and represent both
the richly complicated past and the vivid future of Chinese science
fiction and fantasy.
Time travel to a winter's day on the West Lake, explore the very
boundaries of death itself, and meet old gods and new heroes in this
stunning new collection.
