‎Yu Hua‎

‎Il Settimo Giorno‎

‎8vo, br. ed. pp.188. Un'ironica meditazione sul destino e sul senso della fine, una critica feroce della Cina contemporanea, fra comunismo e ipercapitalismo. Yang Fei esce di casa una mattina e trova una nebbia fitta mista a una strana neve luminosa: è in ritardo per la sua cremazione. Inizia così il viaggio nell'Aldilà di un uomo vissuto, troppo brevemente, nella Cina del capitalismo socialista e delle sue aberranti contraddizioni. In un'avventura di sette giorni, il protagonista incontrerà persone care smarrite da tempo, imparando nuove cose di loro e di se stesso. Conoscenti e sconosciuti gli racconteranno, poi, la propria storia nell'inferno vero, l'Aldiquà: demolizioni forzate, corruzione, tangenti, feti buttati nel fiume come rifiuti, miriadi di poveracci che pullulano in bunker sotterranei come formiche, traffico di organi, consumismo sfrenato... La morte livella finalmente le diseguaglianze, svelando l'essenziale, e i cittadini di questa necropoli soave uscita dalla penna di Yu Hua ci insegnano tutta la semplicità dell'amore.‎

‎Yu Hua‎

‎The Past and the Punishments: Eight Stories (Fiction from Modern China)‎

‎content: On the Road at Eighteen , Classical Love , World Like Mist , The Past and the Punishments, 1986 ; Blood and Plum Blossoms ; The Death of a Landlord ; Predestination ; Translators Postscript Synopsis: To travel through these stories is to cross a landscape of stunning beauty and terrific cruelty, where expectations are subverted, where moral certainties are shattered, where gorgeously wrought surfaces beguile at the same time that acts of incredible brutality horrify. It is no wonder that Yu Huas stories caused a sensation when they first appeared in the 1980s. His work represents a sophisticated and often disturbing revolution in the Chinese literary tradition, reminiscent of the fiction of modernists like Kafka, Kawabata, Borges, and Robbe-Grillet, but drawing inspiration from several strains of traditional Chinese narrative as well. This is the first collection of short fiction by Yu Hua to appear in English. It takes us on a haunting and harrowing journey from classical China through the Cultural Revolution and into the new era of economic reform, exploding along the way our preconceived notions of what Chinese literature and culture are all about in the 1990s. Review: That the concept and history of punishment should figure heavily in the artistic sensibility of a young Chinese writer who grew up during the Cultural Revolution is hardly surprising. The main characters in both the title story and in "1986" are scholars specializing in the history of punishment through the ages, and an ancient fortune teller in another story is said to have achieved near-immortality through the deaths of his first four children. Personality and feeling are almost secondary in Yu Hua's cruel world, a world dominated by numerology, prophecy, and the faceless power of the state.‎

‎London, Hakluyt society, 1913-16 stated, actually Peking, 1942 4 vols. complete. In all aspects identical to the new edition in the Hakluyt Society, Secondo Series XXXIII, XXXVII, XXXIII, XLI, revised throughout in the light of recent discoveries by Henri Cordier but printed in Beijing in 1942. Vol 1 portrait frontis , 2 maps, xxiii, 318 pp. Vol II 6 plates and map of Asia in pocket, xiii, 367 pp. Vol III map and 2 text illus, xv, 270 pp. Vol. IV, xii-359. hard rebound in half black cloth with gilt lettering on spine, and blue boards . very scarce chinese reprint . much scarcer than the london original (before the days of photo-reproduction), from the plates of the Hakluyt Society's 1913-16 edition, This could not have been a pirated edition, as the original plates seem to have been used. . It is a miracle that some academic in Beijing was interested enough to print these volumes in those times and another miracle that they survived the l wars between the Nationalists, the Communists and Japan that were devastating China in 1942. No copies traced in any library or auction records, and the Hakluyt Society cannot account for the Peking printing. A rarity In excellent condition.‎
