She is consider to be the representative author in pioneering styles and internationally acclaimed as China’s most creative author. This book is one of the most astonishing novels of the past twenty years. Exploring the collective consciousness of this little street of ordinary people, Can Xue penetrates the deepest existential anxieties of the present day–whether in China or in the West–where the inevitable impermanence of identity struggles with the narrative within which identity must compose itself.
