Stones in the sea
[edit]Stones in the sea is a 1906 novel by an anonymous Chinese author, written under the pseudonym Fu Lin. The novel is set in turn of the century China, during the period of the Boxer rebellion. The story is told by an adolescent male narrator, through the lens of his criticism against the familial ethics of the Chinese philosopher Mencius, about his own life and his infatuation with a young girl, in the wider context of the conflict between the Traditional Chinese marriage and their own freedoms to choose a partner.
