Beijing Doll

Viac o knihe

Set against the backdrop of Beijing's rock-and-roll subculture, this novel offers an unfiltered look at a young girl's sexual awakening and the struggles of a disaffected generation rejecting tradition. Based on the author's teenage diaries, it captures the essence of self-expression and passion in a society grappling with change. With its explicit sensuality and bold narrative style, the work challenges cultural norms and has been recognized as a groundbreaking piece in contemporary Chinese literature, despite being banned in China.
