Forty-One Firecracker

In the city where Lo Xiaotong was born and raised, everyone goes crazy for meat. While telling the old monk, and us at the same time, stories from his life and the lives of other townspeople, Lo Xiaotong takes us... deeper into the thickets and mysteries of this curious town. Ostrich, camel, donkey, dog — dishes made from a variety of meats pour forth like from a horn of plenty, and the stories become more whimsical, frightening, and - funny? The narrator, storyteller, myth-maker, satirist, master of allusions, and true hallucinogenic realist… Skillfully intertwining several narratives, Mo Yan explores the very essence and lifestyle of modern China.
