Book club: Life and Death are Wearing Me Out

Details

  • One of the Nobel Prize Winners in Literature
  • Written by today’s most revered, controversial, and feared Chinese novelist

For our July book club, we’re reading Life and Death Are Wearing Me Out by Mo Yan 🐣🐔

Mo Yan’s Life and Death Are Wearing Me Out is a remarkable story. The absurd, real, comical, and tragic are combined into a fantastic read. The hero—or antihero—is Ximen Nao, a landowner known for his kindness to his peasants. His tale is a heart-wrenching and unique journey and completely riveting tale that shares the author’s love of a homeland caught by ills political, traditional, and inevitable.

Join us on July 28th as we uncover the layers of Mo Yan’s powerful work 🐷🐰🐴

Make sure you’ve read the novel beforehand, so we can dive right in!
