具体描述

Brilliant and original, A Thousand Years of Good Prayers introduces a remarkable new writer whose breathtaking stories are set in China and among Chinese Americans in the United States. In this rich, astonishing collection, Yiyun Li illuminates how mythology, politics, history, and culture intersect with personality to create fate. From the bustling heart of Beijing, to a fast-food restaurant in Chicago, to the barren expanse of Inner Mongolia, A Thousand Years of Good Prayers reveals worlds both foreign and familiar, with heartbreaking honesty and in beautiful prose.

“Immortality,” winner of The Paris Review’s Plimpton Prize for new writers, tells the story of a young man who bears a striking resemblance to a dictator and so finds a calling to immortality. In “The Princess of Nebraska,” a man and a woman who were both in love with a young actor in China meet again in America and try to reconcile the lost love with their new lives.

“After a Life” illuminates the vagaries of marriage, parenthood, and gender, unfolding the story of a couple who keep a daughter hidden from the world. And in “A Thousand Years of Good Prayers,” in which a man visits America for the first time to see his recently divorced daughter, only to discover that all is not as it seems, Li boldly explores the effects of communism on language, faith, and an entire people, underlining transformation in its many meanings and incarnations.

These and other daring stories form a mesmerizing tapestry of revelatory fiction by an unforgettable writer.

一个偶然的机会,读了李翊云2003在New Yorker上的短篇Extra,并开始对她产生兴趣。于是找出了她的另外两部短篇:《The old country》和《Eat, Memory; Orange Crush》。之后又在网上做了点功课,得知她1996年北大生物毕业到爱荷华大学读免疫,后来转为小说创作,2005年的处女短...

There is a perception that the intension of some Asian-American writers' writing is to satisfy the western readers' curiosity towards China. Therefore, the common theme of this kind of works is to show the "dark" said of China, for example, the untolerant p...

不解的是她在迎合还是纯粹自我分裂
