Description:
The Walking Boy is a quest novel set in early eighth-century
Tang Dynasty China, in the final days of the rule of the first Female Emperor
Wu Zhao. The ailing hermit monk Harelip sends his disciple Baoshi on a
pilgrimage from Mount Hua to Chang'an, the Western capital; Baoshi is the 'walking
boy' charged with locating Harelip's missing former lover Ardhanari. Baoshi
lives with a secret only his Master knows, and he is filled with fears of being
discovered. On his journey, Baoshi crosses paths with both commoners and imperial
officials, as well as others who take delight in their queer identities; in
doing so, he is released powerfully from his past shame.
The Walking Boy is a book of quiet subversion, upending
classical Chinese tropes with contemporary ideas around gender and feminism. Filled
with psychological complexities, magic and poetic allusions to classical
Chinese literature, The Walking Boy
explores the intrigue of inner alchemy while exorcising the ghosts of history.
'In The Walking Boy, Kwa's world-building is meticulous and
rich, her characters both intellectually gripping and incredibly sensual, and
she puts her signature subversive queer, feminist spin on the narrative.' — Amber Dawn, author of Sodom Road Exit
'At the court, at the caves, in the cities and the mountains,
secrets and mysteries abound. This novel has it all, palace intrigues,
betrayals, spirits, enlightenment, magic, and visual and sensual delights. A
diverse cast of fascinating characters and, page after page, poetic
pronouncements to guide one, to live and to die by. I was spellbound to the

Great quality but big
Style: Side Sleeper, Pattern Name: King
These pillows seem to be very good quality. I couldn’t wait to try them. I soon realized that they’re very thick & too high for my neck. I can push the pillow down but it doesn’t stay so I’d say they’re too firm for me & don’t support the neck properly because of the height.

my fav now after using 50+ pillows
Style: Back Sleeper, Pattern Name: King
I have always struggled to find the perfect pillow, and so far I have had 50+ pillows. Personally, I like my pillow to be on thinner side as I look for more support for my neck.
This is my first time buying pillows online, because I like to physically touch and feel the firmness and thickness before I purchase my pillows. I am so glad I did it! These pillows are just PERFECT for me! Perfect firmness, perfect thickness and perfect material.
One thing I suggest is that be extra cautious when you open the package. These pillows were rolled and put in a relatively thin shipping bag, so when you open with sharp objects be careful not to cut your new favorite pillows!
I let the pillows sit for about 48 hours before I started using them, but I assume you don't have to wait that long.
Overall, I am very happy with my first online pillow purchase with Serta!
