About this book
An expatriate writer looks back on life during China's Cultural Revolution, tracing the uneasy connections between private memory, political pressure and survival. Encounters in Hong Kong draw him into recollections of Beijing and the compromises demanded by an oppressive system. Gao Xingjian's autobiographical novel considers exile, desire and the freedom to tell one's own story. Translated from Chinese by Mabel Lee.
