ISBN: 9781592650682

Pages : 256
Book Description
Part autobiographical, the stories offer a depiction of the myriad world of jaded entrepreneurs, overzealous cops, karaoke fanatics, dog lovers, liberated coeds, and frustrated urbanites who move in and out of China's colorful neon-lit cities and dusty rural villages; transitioning from one world to the other. Red Guard Fantasies can be viewed as a corollary to the work of noted classical Chinese writers such as Pu Songling (1640-1715) and Wu Jingzi (1701-1754), who challenged ideas of Chinese society and culture through the use of allegory, satire, and the blending of realistic and fantastic elements, often leading the reader through a dream-like, fantasy state where the real and the surreal become one.
