Shen Fu, writer and painter, who was a native of Soochow, was born in 1763 and died sometime alter 1809. His father was by profession a secretary to magistrates, and Shen Fu was apprenticed in the same profession. Shen held various posts as a secretary, but he also worked by turns as a teacher and merchant. Although he had a studio in Soochow for a time he found that he could not make a living out of his paintings and for much of his life was miserably poor. He was sustained by his beloved wife Ch'en Yun, who died in 1803 after twenty-three years of marriage, and he movingly commemorates their mutual devotion in his enchanting biography.

Chapters From A Floating Life The Autobiography of a Chinese Artist eBook Shen Fu Reviews
To put it as bluntly as possible, this has been called the greatest book ever written. I don't find it quite that good (the chapter on gardening gets old quickly) but I will say that NO ONE, not even Shakespeare himself, has ever managed to convey what it means to be in love as well as the first Chapter of this book does. In that, I cannot argue...Chapter One IS the greatest thing ever written, and moving beyond belief. Worth the money for the first sentence alone.
