About this product

Product Information

The acclaimed novel of love and resistance during late 1930s China by Mo Yan, winner of the 2012 Nobel Prize in Literature Spanning three generations, this novel of family and myth is told through a series of flashbacks that depict events of staggering horror set against a landscape of gemlike beauty, as the Chinese battle both Japanese invaders and each other in the turbulent 1930s. A legend in China, where it won major literary awards and inspired an Oscar-nominated film directed by Zhang Yimou, Red Sorghum is a book in which fable and history collide to produce fiction that is entirely new--and unforgettable.

Reviews
"Mo Yan . . . brilliantly and fondly re-creates life with visceral writing that reeks of gunpowder, blood, and death." -- The New York Times Book Review   Praise for the work of Mo Yan:   "Through a mixture of fantasy and reality, historical and social perspectives, Mo Yan has created a world reminiscent in its complexity of those in the writings of William Faulkner and Gabriel García Márquez, at the same time finding a departure point in old Chinese literature and in oral tradition." --The Nobel Prize Committee   "Mo Yan's voice will find it's way into the heart of the American reader, just as Kundera and García Márquez have." --Amy Tan  , "Mo Yan . . . brilliantly and fondly re-creates life with visceral writing that reeks of gunpowder, blood, and death." -- The New York Times Book Review   Praise for the work of Mo Yan:   "Through a mixture of fantasy and reality, historical and social perspectives, Mo Yan has created a world reminiscent in its complexity of those in the writings of William Faulkner and Gabriel García Márquez, at the same time finding a departure point in old Chinese literature and in oral tradition." --The Nobel Prize Committee   "Mo Yan's voice will find it's way into the heart of the American reader, just as Kundera and García Márquez have." --Amy Tan, "Mo Yan . . . brilliantly and fondly re-creates life with visceral writing that reeks of gunpowder, blood, and death." - The New York Times Book Review   Praise for the work of Mo Yan:   "Through a mixture of fantasy and reality, historical and social perspectives, Mo Yan has created a world reminiscent in its complexity of those in the writings of William Faulkner and Gabriel García Márquez, at the same time finding a departure point in old Chinese literature and in oral tradition." -The Nobel Prize Committee   "Mo Yan's voice will find it's way into the heart of the American reader, just as Kundera and García Márquez have." -Amy Tan  , "Mo Yan . . . brilliantly and fondly re-creates life with visceral writing that reeks of gunpowder, blood, and death." -- The New York Times Book Review Praise for the work of Mo Yan: "Through a mixture of fantasy and reality, historical and social perspectives, Mo Yan has created a world reminiscent in its complexity of those in the writings of William Faulkner and Gabriel García Márquez, at the same time finding a departure point in old Chinese literature and in oral tradition." --The Nobel Prize Committee "Mo Yan's voice will find it's way into the heart of the American reader, just as Kundera and García Márquez have." --Amy Tan, "Mo Yan . . . brilliantly and fondly re-creates life with visceral writing that reeks of gunpowder, blood, and death." -- The New York Times Book Review Praise for the work of Mo Yan: "Through a mixture of fantasy and reality, historical and social perspectives, Mo Yan has created a world reminiscent in its complexity of those in the writings of William Faulkner and Gabriel Garca Mrquez, at the same time finding a departure point in old Chinese literature and in oral tradition." --The Nobel Prize Committee "Mo Yan's voice will find it's way into the heart of the American reader, just as Kundera and Garca Mrquez have." --Amy Tan
