520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC.
Summary, etc. "Civilization: Tales of the Orient" by Ellen N. La Motte is a collection of short stories written in the early 20th century. The narratives explore the lives of several characters against the backdrop of colonial Shanghai and its complexities, including themes of identity, cultural conflict, and personal longing. Each story delves into the interactions and struggles faced by both foreigners and locals, showcasing the stark realities of life in this bustling port city. The opening of the collection introduces a young Englishman named Rogers who arrives in Shanghai, feeling out of place and longing for a sense of normalcy. Distressed by the crude pleasures and rough company found on the China Coast, he chooses to lead a solitary and cautious life instead. Ultimately, in his quest for companionship, he engages in a practical arrangement with a Chinese girl, which raises questions about societal norms and personal ethics. This introductory section sets the stage for deeper explorations of cultural and relational dynamics that are likely to unfold in subsequent tales within this provocative collection. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
