Description

Twenty stories by Chinese writers as they break free of the grip of uniformity which held them for over four decades. The stories include Can Xue's The Summons, on the last days of a murderer, Su Tong's The Brothers Shu, on male rivalry for a woman, and A String of Choices, which is a satirical look at Chinese health care by Wang Meng, a deposed minister of culture.
