This revelatory volume brings together significant works in
translations from nearly fifty Chinese writers. It includes poems,
essays, fiction, songs and speeches written in an astonishing array
of moods and styles, from sublime lyricism to witty surrealism,
poignant documentary to the ironic, the absurd, the transgressive
and the defiant. Yunte Huang provides essential context in an
opening essay and in headnotes, timelines and brief introductions
to the Republican, Revolutionary and Post-Mao eras. Both personal
and authoritative, his selections make for a joyously informative
read. From belles lettres to literary propaganda, from poetic
revolution to pulp fiction, The Big Red Book is an eye-opening
portrait of China in the tumultuous twentieth century.
