水滸傳

In the last years of the Northern Song, corrupt officials drive one honest man after another into outlawry, until a hundred and eight heroes gather in the marshes of Liangshan. Told as a chain of linked adventures, it follows brawlers, scholars and fugitives on their way to the mountain stronghold. This book uses the racial and other slurs of its period as written; the Book Guide explains these words where they occur. This book contains scenes of violence as its author wrote them.
