Text
W. H. Auden and Christopher Isherwood were commissioned by Faber and Faber in London and Random House in New York to write a book about the Far East. The authors decided that their subject would be the war which had been provoked by the Japanese in July with Marshal Chiang Kai-shek's nationalist forces in China.Isherwood's reportage was to provide a prose commentary on China and its war, while Auden would write about the war parabolically to provide a theory of human violence.
