Publisher's Synopsis

Laou-Seng-Urh is a Chinese drama written by Wu Han Chin in 1817. The play revolves around the story of an old man named Laou-Seng-Urh who is the last surviving member of his family. He desperately wants to have an heir to carry on his family name and legacy. The play explores the themes of family, tradition, and the struggle to maintain one's identity in a changing world. The plot is set in motion when Laou-Seng-Urh decides to adopt a young man named Chang as his heir. However, Chang is not who he appears to be, and his true identity threatens to destroy the old man's hopes and dreams. The play is a classic example of Chinese drama, with its intricate plot, complex characters, and vivid descriptions of traditional Chinese culture.
