In "Change", Mo Yan, the 2012 Nobel Laureate in Literature,
personalizes the political and social changes in his country over
the past few decades in this novella disguised as autobiography-or
vice-versa. Unlike most historical narratives from China, which are
pegged to political events, "Change" is a representative of
"people's history," a bottom-up rather than top-down view of a
country in flux. By moving back and forth in time and focusing on
small events and everyday people, Mo Yan breathes life into history
by describing the effects of larger-than-life events on the average
citizen.
