Mr. Muo’s Travelling Couch by Dai Sijie, translated by Ina Rilke [in AsianWeek]
30 Jun, by in Adult Readers, Chinese, Fiction, Repost, Translation
The long-awaited follow-up to the provocative Balzac and the Little Chinese Seamstress introduces readers to the hapless Muo, a newbie Freud devotee, who returns to his native China...
Delightful debut about two teenage boys sent to be “re-educated” during Mao’s Cultural Revolution and their love for a local village girl and banned western literature.
