This won a Nobel prize! And I seriously don't get why. Like yes, it's great it's a Chinese author talking about his life in the older days like the 60s, 70s, 80s, etc. Maybe people who are older would enjoy this more, so I don't get why it was on an HS library, lol. Mo talked more about Le Wenglu and He Zhiwu than himself. And all we know about himself is that he's bad lucked, has a big mouth, was in the army, and loved these trucks a lot, that's it. We also know he got married, but not much about his wife. We know more about He Zhiwu's wife though, lol. I guess it was beautiful in its own interesting way. I gotta say I don't understand why people call him China's Kafka when Kafka's works are much different and bizarre, this one wasn't. Anyways, I'd say it wasn't bad, but not something I'd go on recommending to everyone and I'd reread...
