Description

New in the Harper Perennial Modern Chinese Classics series, BorderTown is a classic Chinese novel-banned by Mao's regime-that captures the ideals of rural China through the moving story of a young woman and her grandfather. Originally published in 1934 by author Shen Congwen, this beautifully written novel tells the story of Cuicui, a young country girl who is coming of age in rural China in the tumultuous time before the communist revolution.

Author Biography:

Shen Congwen (1902-1988) is one of the most influential writers in China’s modern history. His novel Border Town was banned under Mao’s regime, only to become an inspiration to a new generation of Chinese writers in the late-20th century.
