阿爾卑斯山總予人「非常瑞士」的感覺。在這個經常被美化、典型化的國度，山峰雲朵繚繞，樹林陰森森的，青翠的草地裝點著野花；這兒有各種野獸，也有孤零零的農舍，住著粗獷的農夫和成群的牛羊──無數的本土神話和傳說，就在這種環境中孕育 出來。昔日，還傳聞神祇和鬼魅會在山中出沒呢。今天，阿爾卑斯山開始城市化了，但人們卻以不同的方式去理解它，諸如：崇高感；原始的美麗、純樸和天真；自 由奔放；活力與詭秘；連結著人的

Leung Ping Kwan brought as much talent and inspiration to the writing of his short stories as he did to his poems. ‘I have drawn on magical realism to explore the absurdity of Hong Kong,’ he wrote of the story ‘See Mun and the Dragon’ (1975) in which we find him using a simple, clipped style. The later story ‘Drowned Souls’ (2007) was written in a more symbolic, lyrical and more complex manner. Although the two stories are separated by over thirty years, and are in many ways so very different, dragons play a prominent part in both. The dragon has always been a fascinating creature, a complex embodiment of the timeless soul of China, symbol of the universal power of the imagination, of the creative energy and transformative possibilities of the Tao. Both of these enchanting stories are anchored in the author’s idea of freedom and liberation.

Leung Ping Kwan is one of Hong Kong’s most acclaimed poets. His poems display a unique blend of the literary and the down-to-earth, of the modern and the traditional, of the serious and the humorous, of the local and the universal. In his own words, ‘I want my poems about things to be a dialogue with the world, to learn and be inspired by the shapes, smells and colours of things….’ This collection has been carefully curated, and is arranged under ten thematic sections: Lotus Leaves, Hong Kong, Macao, Foodscape, After the Book of Songs, Strange Tales: After Pu Songling, Clothink, Museum Pieces, Places and Friends, and Bitter-Melon and Others. These translated poems, and the delight they bring, are a celebration of the continuing legacy of a remarkable Hong Kong poet.
