Xiao Gen .-Love Through Reed-Pipe Wind and Mouth-String: The Lahus. Yunnan Education Publishing House. 1995

This book was published in 1995 to commemorate the Second International Conference on Woman, celebrated in Beijing. Though simple, it suggests that in the past the Lahu enjoyed a matriarchal society. It depicts with scarce detail the love and marriage of the Lahu girls. The authors, a couple of man and woman as is customary to work among the Lahu, suggest that Esha, the creator of the universe, was, in their tradition, a feminine deity, lately changed to masculine deity by Chinese patriarchal influence.
