描述
From the Franz Kafka Prize–winning author of Lenin’s Kiss , a “stupendous and unforgettable” novel of Mao’s China ( The Times , London).
In the ninety-ninth district of a re-education compound, freethinking artists and academics are detained to strengthen their loyalty to Communist ideologies. Here, the Musician and her lover, the Scholar, along with the Author and the Theologian, are subjected to grinding physical labor. They are also encouraged to inform on each other’s dissident behavior—for the prize of a chance at freedom.
Their preadolescent supervisor, the Child, delights in reward systems and excessive punishments. But when agricultural and industrial production quotas are raised to an unattainable level, the ninety-ninth district dissolves into lawlessness. As inclement weather and famine set in, the people are abandoned by the regime and left alone to survive.
Set inside a labor camp during Mao’s Great Leap Forward, Booklist calls The Four Books a “rich and complex novel,” from “China’s most heralded and censored modern writer” ( The South China Morning Post ).

备用描述
Man Booker International Prize finalist Yan Lianke's most powerful and searing novel yet, about the persecution of intellectuals in a reeducation camp during the Great Leap Forward. "The Four Books" is a daring, darkly satirical story of the dog-eat-dog psychology inside a labor camp during China's "three bitter years" of famine. Reminiscent of such classics as "A Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich" and "Darkness at Noon," Yan's mythical, symbolic, sometimes surreal tale portrays the absurdity and grotesquerie of this traumatic period, which has been a taboo subject for half a century. Divided into four narratives - influenced by the four texts of Confucianism and the four Gospels of the New Testament - this is an affecting and poetic novel that captures the universal power of camaraderie, love, and faith against oppression and the darkest odds
