| Summary | "風月夢" by active 19th century Hanshangmengren is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around a character who reflects on his past experiences of indulgence in the pleasures of life, particularly in relation to love and the consequences of a life spent in pursuit of fleeting desires. Through his journey, the narrative seems to critique societal morals and the pitfalls of reckless behavior. The opening of the narrative establishes a reflective tone as the protagonist shares his youthful mistakes, characterized by a life of hedonism and a fascination with the world of courtesans and entertainment. He recounts how this lifestyle led to personal ruin and the loss of moral integrity, revealing that many young men face similar temptations. As he interacts with figures representing different societal roles, such as old sages and fellow seekers of pleasure, the protagonist's inner thoughts convey a cautionary message about the consequences of falling into destructive habits. The beginning sets the stage for a mixture of personal anecdotes and societal commentary, foreshadowing a deeper exploration of themes such as illusion versus reality and the struggle for redemption.
