Pu Songling was a Qing Dynasty Chinese writer, best known as the author of Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio. Wikipedia
Born: June 5, 1640, Zibo, China
Died: February 25, 1715, Zibo, China

Today is the 377th birthday of Qing Dynasty writer Pu Songling, author of STRANGE TALES FROM A CHINESE STUDIO (prh.com/books/299446). A schoolteacher by profession, Pu and his work did not become widely known until well after his death in 1715.
STRANGE TALES FROM A CHINESE STUDIO abounds with stories of the supernatural—demons, animal spirits, couplings between humans and magical creatures. Some are tragic, some humorous, some witty and redemptive, but all are entertaining and surprising.
