Abstract

The article is devoted to the image of China in short fiction series “The Yellow Face” by Russian emigrant writer E. Magaram. These sketches and short stories were published in Shanghai in anthologies “Far East” (1920), “Yellow Face” (1921) and “China” (1923). Special features of Chinese civilization are analyzed in Maragam’s depiction of everyday life in multinational Shanghai. Images of periods of the day, the most important Shanghai loci, color, sound and olfactory images represent life in China as socially and culturally discordant, but following the laws of nature.
