520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC.
Summary, etc. "Yan Lianke is one of the most important, prolific, and controversial writers in contemporary China. At the forefront of the "mythorealist" Chinese avant-garde and using absurdist humour and grotesque satire, Yan's works have caught much critical attention not only in mainland China, Hong Kong and Taiwan, but also around the world. His critiques of modern China under both Mao-era socialism and contemporary capitalism draw on a deep knowledge of history, folklore and spirituality. This companion presents a collection of critical essays by leading scholars of Yan Lianke from around the world, organised into some of the key themes of his work: Mythorealism; Absurdity & Spirituality; and History & Gender, as well as the challenges of translating his work into English and other languages. With an Introduction by Yan Lianke himself, this is a vital and authoritative resource for students and scholars looking to understand Yan's works from both his own perspective, and those of leading critics"--
