Description

The Battle of Chibi (Red Cliffs): selected and translated from The Romance of the Three Kingdoms

Long ago, along a stretch of a river deep and wide but far away from the consciousness or imagination of anyone outside All under Heaven, a battle was fought that determined the fate of its people for the next four hundred years. This vivid retelling combines fascinating characters in action as well as ideas in conflict and battle scenes, deception, and earnest debate; there is even a marriage arranged for the purpose of entrapping the Loyalist leader. It weaves together stories, drama, poetry—events and episodes that have engrossed Asian readers and listeners for the last seventeen hundred years.

Above all, the warriors and leaders in this retelling, their loyalties and conflicts, show why this classic has been valued as the best introduction to Chinese thought. The Battle of Chibi (Red Cliffs) is a captivating exploration of one of history’s most pivotal moments, brought to life through the timeless narrative of The Romance of the Three Kingdoms.
