Written by the award winning author Yan Lianke, the book is both a tribute to the women who shaped his life and a sociological critique of China’s treatment of women. “In the countryside, the human being is a worker,” but rural women’s work is diminished, their hardship ignored. Through humor and tragedy, Lianke shares their story and reveals a side of Chinese life rarely accessed by the West.","brand":"Verso","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48131798532351,"sku":"9781836742852","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/9781836742852_s600x595.jpg?v=1779820378","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/de\/products\/9781836742852","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
