In the turbulent final years of the Yuan Dynasty, Wang Meng is a
minor bureaucrat in the government of the Mongol conquerors. He is
also an extraordinarily gifted artist whose paintings capture the
infinite expanse of China's natural beauty. But an empire in
turmoil is not a place or time for sitting still. On his journeys
across the realm, Wang encounters fellow master painters, a fierce
female warrior known as the White Tigress who recruits him as a
military strategist, and an unprepossessing young Buddhist monk who
rises from beggary to extraordinary heights. John Spurling's
award-winning The Ten Thousand Things seamlessly fuses the epic and
the intimate with the precision and depth that the real-life Wang
Meng brought to his art.
