This album, while inspired by the fictions of the 18th century Chinese novelist Cáo Xuêqín, also manages to offer a sorrowful grace for that terrifying year of 2020. Themes of fate, separation or sudden loss, death, ghosts, and the abuse of power recur. And what bitter consolation, that lovely final song and its refrain: "Those that see through the world/escape from the world."
Another brilliant record. Philip Graham

Not her more accessible album, to put it mildly. There are some tracks with a hidden beauty, but in most of them, the text is king and music almost disappears. Maybe it should have been released as "Spoken word"? alfayate

The world is mean, that I somehow hadn't discovered the music of Elysian Fields until 2023.
The world is sweet, that I’ve finally discovered the music of Elysian Fields in 2023.
