From the preeminent writer of Taiwanese nativist fiction and the leading translator of Chinese literature come these poignant accounts of everyday life in rural and smalltown Taiwan. Huang is frequently cited as one of the most original and gifted storytellers in the Chinese language, and these selections reveal his genius. In The Two Sign Painters, TV reporters ambush two young workers from the country taking a break atop a twentyfourstory building. His Son's Big Doll introduces the tortured soul inside a walking advertisement, and in Xiaoqi's Cap a dissatisfied pressurecooker salesman is fascinated by a young schoolgirl.Huang's characters generally the uneducated and disadvantaged who must cope with assaults on their traditionalism, hostility from their urban brethren and, of course, the debilitating effects of poverty come to life in all their human uniqueness, free from idealization.
