The Golden Cangue is a 1943 Chinese novella by Eileen Chang. The author's own English translation appeared in the anthology Modern Chinese Stories and Novellas: 1919–1949 published by Columbia University Press.
"The Golden Cangue," a modern work of striking originality, is nevertheless deeply indebted to Dream of the Red Chamber for its style and boudoir realism. Eileen Chang, who knows this novel by heart, has written a valuable textual study called Nightmare in the Red Chamber (Hung-lou meng-yen, Taipei, 1977).
