"Woman with Flowers" Author: Mo Yan Publisher: Shanghai Literature and Art Publishing House

"Woman with Flowers" includes Mo Yan's novella "Road Building" written in the 1980s and seven novellas written in the early 1990s. These novels not only have distinct artistic styles, but also have their own characteristics and explosive power. Among them, "Woman with Flowers" seems to be about love affairs between men and women, but in fact it is about the dilemma of life. The symbolic meaning is far greater than the description of life; "Red Ears" is based on the legendary figures of his hometown, praising a state of seeing through, satirizing the current inflated material desires; "Reunion of Comrades" is the only military-themed novella in Mo Yan's entire creation. It was translated into Vietnamese and caused months of controversy after its publication. "White Cotton" was once adapted into the screen by filmmakers from both sides of the Taiwan Strait.
