Red Sorghum.
Red Sorghum.
YAN, Mo.
Item Number: 3058
First Chinese edition of the author’s magnum opus, translated into English as Red Sorghum. Octavo, original illustrated wrappers. Signed and dated in Chinese by the author. Near fine in wrappers as issued.
A legend upon publication in China, where it won major literary awards and inspired an Oscar-nominated film directed by Zhang Yimou, Red Sorghum is a book in which fable and history collide to produce fiction that is entirely new and unforgettable. Mo was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature for his work as a writer "who with hallucinatory realism merges folk tales, history and the contemporary"; surely with this novel in mind.
