Love in a Fallen City (傾城之戀) is a 1943 Chinese-language novel by Eileen Chang. The translation is included in the New York Review of Books "Classics" series.The story focuses about a love story that triumphed during the wartime Hong Kong. Scholar Nicole Huang suggests that Eileen Chang's "most important literary legacy from the 1940s is her construction of an alternative narrative of war, one that contradicted the grand narratives of national salvation and revolution that dominated the wartime literary scene."
