Books of 2014 - Book 168 - The Complete Ci-poems of Li Qingzhao - translation by Jiaosheng Wang Im not really qualified to review this translation, and Im sure much of the beauty vanishes in translation, but I enjoyed spending a rainy Sunday afternoon with this collection of poetry from one of the Song dynastys most famous poets. (Guy Gavriel Kays River of Stars features a fictional depiction of Li Qingzhao and is one of my favorite books. I got curious about the historical basis for her character and discovered this translation of her poetry.)
