Book summary


The Chinese Nobel laureate Gao Xingjian's 1997 novel is about a man who, after a golden childhood, becomes involved in resistance to Mao's Cultural Revolution. Besides telling the story of the unnamed narrator's rebel activities, the novel provides a panoramic view of China and its many upheavals through the 20th century.


Media reviews


"...ONE MAN'S BIBLE, wonderful translated...by Mabel Lee, has come to claim its place as a powerful narrative, barely fictional, of the Cultural Revolution's insidious, corrosive terror."
