Chinese Myths and Folk Tales: Barnes & Noble Classics (Barnes & Noble Leatherbound Classic Collection)

Good folk tales to enjoy if you want a chilled relaxing time! I am still reading but every story is nice and interesting. Nice material!! Nice touch to my story tales collection

I haven't read the stories yet. But judging by the contents list, it has everything: fairy tales, ghost stories, legends, myths, folk tales. Number of titles included is impressive. A nice way to explore Chinese culture. The look and feel of the book is also splendid. Leather-like material with bright and high-quality pictures on the cover.

I love the stories in this book, even though I agree the writing style is a little bland probably due to translation. Fascinating nonetheless. I love the gold edging and the paper itself is a little thin, this adds to the magical delicateness of this book. Lots and lots of stories.

I bought it for the folktales but almost felt bad reading it because the cover is so gorgeous and it seemed a shame to crease the spine lol That said the contents are also a great addition to my library. I was pleasantly surprised to discover a number of new tales I hadn’t come across before. Would recommend.

The content is overwhelming, so much to read and so much to be engrossed in. On the flip side, I found the writing style a little bland, but maybe this is something that has been lost in translation, I'm not sure. The pages are quite flimsy too. Overall a good read but not the manuscript this optimist was hoping for. Recommend.

A really beautiful book, filled with great stories. A must buy for anyone with an interest in Chinese mythology.

Daughter delighted with look of book and the content

Arrived quickly nice quality very pleased

Magnifique recueil de poèmes chinois. L’ouvrage est une perle et les poèmes parfois courts mais très bien écrits. Ensuite, comparé à d’autres recueils de Barnes&Nobles, il n’y a pas d’illustrations dans celui-ci. Seul bémol, sûrement à cause de la livraison, la couverture est très légèrement déformée sur certains coins.

Very much greatful to giving the opportunity to avail such a precious book

It's been on my list for a while but I'm glad I went ahead and bought it. Cover looks amazing, stories are well organised, and I love the collection overall. Big bonus: It looks great on a bookshelf. 10/10

Fantastic design! I was extremely pleased with the size, feel, overall appearance and content of the book. Ticked all my boxes for really a well-crafted book made with love to little details. Will delight all those who long for the golden days of binding!

Libro molto bello ed elegante, molto interessanti anche i miti e le leggende al suo interno, ottimo!
