The acclaimed novel of love and resistance during late 1930s China by Mo Yan, winner of the 2012 Nobel Prize in Literature.

Spanning three generations, this novel of family and myth is told through a series of flashbacks that depict events of staggering horror set against a landscape of gemlike beauty, as the Chinese battle both Japanese invaders and each other in the turbulent 1930s.

A legend 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.

I don't think there's any more to say beyond 'brutal, beautiful and enduring'. The narrator is very good and the story draws you in.

Brutal, beautiful, enduring

This is an amazingly evocative account of rural China during the second world war. Bestial cruelty on both sides (China and Japan) and a very contemporary narrative style, jumping skilfully from recollection to recollection without losing clarity. Outstanding narrative performance from the reader. Confronting content but exceptionally worthwhile.

Incredibly beautiful and truthful
