Yu Hua - Novels, Short Stories and Essays (10 books)

Torrent: Yu Hua - Novels, Short Stories and Essays (10 books)
Description:



YU HUA (b. 1960) is a Chinese author, one of a generation of writers who began reconstructing modern Chinese literature in the late 1980s and early 90s, publishing a series of spare, simple, carefully-drawn novels. Departing from conventional realism in favor of a more surreal and subjective approach inspired by Kafka, Faulkner, and Borges, the boundary-pushing fiction of this period reflected the momentous cultural changes sweeping the world’s most populous nation.

The theme of modern Chinese history is prevalent throughout Yu Hua's writing, with stories often set in small towns during historical periods that he experienced including China under Mao's rule, the Civil War and Cultural Revolution, and post-Mao capitalist China. His work incorporates elements of magic realism and pre-modern Chinese fiction elements, and is characterized by dark humour and strange modes of perception and description. Known for his complexity and unique linguistic styles, Yu Hua has been successful at constructing mysterious and rich literary universes in both fiction and non-fiction.

TO LIVE (1993), his earliest novel, follows the transformation of a spoiled son of a landlord as he witnesses the brutality and hardships of the Civil War and Cultural Revolution. The novel was originally banned in China but later named one of that nation's most influential books. CHRONICLE OF A BLOOD MERCHANT (1995) follows a struggling cart-pusher and portrays the hardships of life under the leadership of Chairman Mao. BROTHERS (2005) has been described as "an epic and wildly unhinged black comedy of modern Chinese society running amok", and consists of two volumes following the childhood of two step-brothers during the Cultural Revolution and life in capitalist China. CRIES IN THE DRIZZLE (2007) follows a boy through his childhood in China under the reign of Mao. As a black sheep in society and his own family, he observes the consequences of Communist rule from a unique perspective. THE SEVENTH DAY (2015), Yu Hua's most recent novel, relates the story of Yang Fei who dies at age forty-one and, without adequate money for a burial plot, is left to aimlessly roam the afterworld. Over the course of seven days, he encounters the souls of friends, family and acquaintances who died before him.
