This translation first appeared in hardcover in 1988. Mass Market Paperback. Zhang Xianliang (1936 2014) was a Chinese novelist, essayist, and poet. Zhang began publishing poetry at the age of 13. During the Anti-Rightist Movement, in 1957, his poetry was criticized as counter-revolutionary, and Zhang was sent to a labor camp in Ningxia at age 21. He was subsequently detained several more times, and ultimately spent 22 years in prisons and labor camps. During the events of the Tiananmen Square protests of 1989, he expressed sympathy with the protesting students, resulting in the ban of his work "Getting Used to Dying" until 1993. He served as president of the Chinese Writers Association in Ningxia.
