Like a Chinese Kurt Vonnegut. By turns lyrical and satirical, Wang Xiaobo's sexual comedies set during the Chinese Cultural Revolution are as improbable as that genre sounds. His long overdue publication in English comes as a gift. Golden Age is funny and brave and profound. Chris Kraus, author of I Love Dick ""At the time Wang was writing, novels about the Cultural Revolution tended to be fairly conventional tales of how good people suffered nobly during this decade of madness. The system itself was rarely called into question. Wang's book was radically different.

Chen Qingyang is a virgin 2. I was born without a penis. Both of these propositions were hard to prove, therefore, we couldn't prove our innocence. In fact, I was leaning more toward proving that we weren't.
