To me, no writer has ever used the Chinese language as cruelly as Zhang Ailing (Eileen Chang), and no story of hers is as beautiful or as cruel as ”Lust, Caution.”
Eileen Chang’s thrilling short story ”Lust, Caution”--a devastating tale of love, betrayal, and manipulation set in Shanghai during World War II--marks with a forceful clarity her mastery
of the form. Newly adapted into a major motion picture by Academy Award-winning director Ang Lee, Lust, Caution has become an equally remarkable addition to the work of one of the most
internationally renowned directors.
Included in this unique volume are the original story by Eileen Chang, as well as the screenplay by Wang Hui Ling and James Schamus. Key members of the production have written notes about
Chang and about the process of adapting ”Lust, Caution.” With a biographical essay on Chang by translator Julia Lovell and eight pages of color stills from the film, this volume will become
the definitive edition for film students and aficionados alike.
