Rezensionen

'To Arthur Waley we are now indebted for the first historical biography of Po Chü-ibut this book is more. It is a social history of the early ninth century in China, though history in a delectable form, for Arthur Waley has a felicitous style, which conceals most careful scholarship.' - Manchester Guardian

'No-where can so much information be obtained about life in the T'ang Dynasty.' - Time and Tide

'...the book bears all the evidence of long and careful research' - The Times
