About the Author:

Mo Yan, winner of the 2012 Nobel Prize for Literature, has published dozens of short stories and novels in Chinese. His other English-language works include "The Garlic Ballads", "The Republic of Wine, Shifu: You'll Do Anything for a Laugh", "Big Breasts & Wide Hips", and "Life and Death Are Wearing Me Out".

In awarding him the Nobel Prize the Swedish Academy said: Through a mixture of fantasy and reality, historical and social perspectives, Mo Yan has created a world reminiscent in its complexity of those in the writings of William Faulkner and Gabriel Garcia Marquez, at the same time finding a departure point in old Chinese literature and in oral tradition.
