Excerpt from The Carolina Magazine: A Magazine of Opinion, Literary Expression and Journalistic Endeavour; October, 1923
Another Chinese play Mr. Hsiung wrote in English 31 last year, The Marvelous Romance of Wen Chen Chin, will be published in the next issue of Poet Lore. Mr. Hsiung has a charming sense of humor, and writes with a naivete of imagination and a freshness of phrase which our young American playwrights may well emulate. We predict that he will play an important part in the making of a new Chinese Drama.
