To Live by Yu Hua

To Live by Yu Hua

Fugui gambles away his family's wealth just before the Communist revolution, an accident that inadvertently saves his life when wealthy landowners are later persecuted, and the novel follows his family through decades of civil war, famine and the Cultural Revolution, absorbing loss after devastating loss.

Yu Hua writes with deceptively simple, almost folk-tale prose about immense historical suffering, and the novel's title captures its central, quietly devastating argument: that mere survival and continued living, without any promise of meaning or justice, is itself a genuine achievement.

One of the most acclaimed contemporary Chinese novels, adapted into an award-winning film.
