Living by Yu Hua / Jaguar Book Publication Year: 2019 Number of Pages: 210 Paper Type: Book Paper Size: 12-8 Of course, Fugui is unaware of what a long life will offer him during the days of his youth. Years later, when he starts talking about his life to a stranger he met while plowing his field with his old ox, he will talk about more than what happened to a spoiled young man: Fugui tells about the lives of six people along with him, the surprises of fate, the pains and joys of life. Thus, what comes out of his language - or more accurately, from Yu Hua's pen - turns into an epic novel about the human condition. A simple narrative gives birth to a powerful narrative: lines on paper like the marks left by a plow in the soil. Just as life embraces everything, Living embraces life as it is. With their births and deaths, their unhappiness and hopes... Bahar Kılıç translated Living, which has become a "modern classic" with the increasing number of readers who say that they have lived a life rather than reading a life story, even though it was banned in their country when it was published.
