明朝末年，文人组织“复社”领袖书生侯朝宗，因痛斥奸臣阮大铖，为秦淮名姬李香君所爱慕。侯题诗扇上赠与香君作定情物。八年后，几经反乱香君得知侯己变节投清时，严词斥责，撕碎桃花扇，从此拒侯，入庵隐居。由顾伟光等编译的《桃花扇故事（英文版）》是通过明末复社文人侯方域与秦淮名妓李香君的爱情故事来反映南明一代兴亡的历史剧。 The Peach Blossom Fan is a great masterpiece of Kun opera and has been a favorite of Chinese audiences for more than 300 years. It takes the love story between the Revival Society poet Hou Fanyu and the beautiful river courtesan Li Xiangjun as its basis; but as a historical epic， it reflects the brief splendor and fall of the short-lived Southern Ming dynasty. This book， with plain words， intends to help foreign readers understand the story and appreciate classic Chinese opera.
