In the wake of the Communist revolution, honest landowner Ximen Nao is shot to death. Protesting his fate to Yama, lord of the underworld, he strikes a deal by which he is reincarnated as a series of animals--a donkey, ox, pig, dog, and monkey--on his way to eventually being reborn as a human. These animals (each a version of Nao himself, and each, amazingly, with its own distinctive voice) serve as the narrators of Mo Yan`s rich, outlandish, tawdry, hilarious, and cruel novel that charts the history of Communist China with an outrageous flair rare to Eastern or Western literature. Famine, catastrophe, and idiocy become commonplace in the years from 1950 to the present, and the novel spares nothing and no one in its savage critique--not Chairman Mao, not the rise of modern Chinese capitalism, not even the author himself. LIFE AND DEATH ARE WEARING ME OUT is an astonishing, side-splitting, and mind-boggling epic, perhaps the first salvo in a revolution in Chinese literature.

    About the Author

    Mo Yan, winner of the 2012 Nobel Prize for Literature, was born in 1955 in North Gaomi Township in Shandong Province, an impoverished rural area that is the setting for much of his fiction. Despite the audacity of his writing, he has won virtually every national literary prize, including China's Annual Writer's Prize, its most prestigious award. He is the author of The Garlic Ballads, The Republic of Wine; Shifu, You'll Do Anything for a Laugh; Big Breasts and Wide Hips, and Life and Death Are Wearing Me Out, all published by Arcade, as well as Red Sorghum and Pow!. Mo Yan and his family live in Beijing.
