Chinese Literature

Que algú de l’altra punta de la terra faci el cop de cap de venir a viure al teu país. Que et triï a tu per veí. Que faci créixer els seus fills en la teva llengua perquè estimin el que tu estimes. I que aquest algú que treballa en una perruqueria dotze hores al dia, sis dies a la setmana, amorrada als teus peus, a les teves mans i als teus cabells, tingui la generositat d’explicar-te el seu món.

من المدهش أن يقدم لنا سوتونغ رواية أجيال في ما يربو على المئة صفحة. فمن الهراء محاولة تلخيص أحداث القصة أو محاولة تكثيفها، لأنها جاءت هكذا دفقة واحدة في خيال راوٍ سحري، يعبر الأزمان والأماكن ولافاصل يعوقه.

From one of China’s foremost authors, Jia Pingwa’s Happy Dreams is a powerful depiction of life in industrializing contemporary China, in all its humor and pathos, as seen through the eyes of Happy Liu, a charming and clever rural laborer who leaves his home for the gritty, harsh streets of Xi’an in search of better life.

Notable literary figures pay tribute to poet/writer Justin Chin with personal commentaries on works selected from his seven books. Justin Chin's fearless and fierce voice was resolute in relating his worldview, whether directly or through metaphorical language.

Every year on the day of the Ghost Festival, creatures from the underworld roam city streets freely when the gate of hell is opened. The owner of the House of Life set out a lavish banquet to entertain and appease these hungry ghosts. This year, however, foul creatures led by a long-dead Manchurian nobleman came down from the Devil's Peak on horseback and stormed the banquet hall. They harassed the guests and wrecked havoc to the festivity, demanding the House of Life to hand over something it has been safe-keeping for centuries.

In this captivating collection from the Shaanxi region, considered the cradle of Chinese civilization, twenty disparate and unique voices come together to show a China caught between new-world advancements and old-world traditions. From the homeland of China’s first dynasty and the world-famous terra-cotta warriors, these tales show rugged rural life colliding with fast-paced city life; hollow arranged marriages juxtaposed with torrid forbidden love affairs; and the vanity of newly minted millionaires clashing with the desperation of the poor.
