In this second of a planned five-volume series, David Roy provides a complete and annotated translation of the famous Chin P'ing Mei, an anonymous sixteenth-century Chinese novel that focuses on the domestic life of His-men Ch'ing, a corrupt, upwardly mobile merchant in a provincial town, who maintains a harem of six wives and concubines. This work, known primarily for its erotic realism, is also a landmark in the development of narrative art--not only from a specifically Chinese perspective but in a world-historical context.

Long out-of-print, this novella is Ganymede's life story - unapologetic in its ribald details of Greek gods in disguise, trying to seduce the most beautiful youth in the Ancient world. When a prince of Troy is born with perfect proportions, not only does every man he meets desire him, but the Immortals want him as their lover. Ganymede loses his virginity to Hermes at 12, at 14 he captures the attention of Ares and Apollo...can Zeus be next?

ある朝夢から目覚めると、毒虫になっていた。突然虫になってしまった男と、その家族の生活という日常。あまりにも非日常的な出来事には、説明も何もない。ただ、【突然虫になってしまった】事実があるのみである。 「この子は虫じゃない。私達の家族だもの。」 そんなこと、現実では有り得ない。目の前に居るのは、どう見ても毒虫である。ただ、それだけ。家族を養えず、母親を気絶させ、下宿人を追い出そうとする、そんな虫が、家族である訳がない――。20世紀を代表する不条理小説として、現代でも必読書に挙げられることの多いカフカの「変身」。本作では実力派の朗読家が、非日常の日常を、淡々と冷ややかに読み上げる。人間のエゴや弱さを鋭く突く、問題作。

Das Dao De Ging - auch Tao Te King oder Daodejing geschrieben - ist eines der meist-übersetzten Bücher der Weltliteratur. Es ist hier dargeboten in einer Fassung, die auf jeden philosophischen Kommentar bewusst verzichtet und den Text so einfach und prägnant wie möglich hält. Alles, was Zierrat ist in der Diktion muss daher gnadenlos weggestrichen werden, sodass sozusagen das Skelett der Gedanken durchscheint.
