About This Book

• One of the Nobel Prize Winners in Literature
• Ideal for fans of Chinese Playground, We Are Party People, Death of Me, Skate with Me, A Farmer's Life for Me, and similar works
• Written by today's most revered, controversial, and feared Chinese novelist

Mo Yan's Life and Death Are Wearing Me Out is a remarkable story. The absurd, real, comical, and tragic are combined into a fantastic read. The hero—or antihero—is Ximen Nao, a landowner known for his kindness to his peasants. His tale is a heart-wrenching and unique journey and completely riveting tale that shares the author's love of a homeland caught by ills political, traditional, and inevitable.
