Features: Lyrism, acuity, humor. Untonneuf, a unique writing technique. Wang Meng, born in 1934 in Hebei, is now one of China's most outstanding writers of his generation. The six short stories published here are based on real-life situations, including the author's personal experience. They reveal the difficulties that contemporary China faces in its march forward. The regrets are lucid, but there is only simple confidence and hope. "The Butterfly," which traces thirty years of Chinese socialism in a single person's persistent pursuit of a beautiful but tragic path, is a masterpiece.
