Strange Beasts of China
By Yan Ge
"Luminous and beguiling . . ."--The Washington Post
"Magical Realism at its best . . ."--The Wall Street Journal
From one of the most exciting voices in contemporary Chinese literature, an uncanny and playful novel that blurs the line between human and beast...
In the fictional Chinese city of Yong'an, an amateur cryptozoologist is commissioned to uncover the stories of its fabled beasts. These creatures live alongside humans in near-inconspicuousness--save their greenish skin, serrated earlobes, and strange birthmarks. >Part detective story, part metaphysical enquiry, Strange Beasts of China engages existential questions of identity, humanity, love and morality with whimsy and stylistic verve.
