Hardback. In this lively translation of Wang Chen-ho's ribald satire, a Taiwanese village loses all perspective -- and common sense -- at the prospect of fleecing a shipload of lusty and lonely American soldiers. This irreverent novel by one of Taiwan's best-known writers is both a masterpiece of fiction and a vivid reflection of Taiwanese identity and the impact of Western culture. Translator(s): Goldblatt, Howard. Series: Modern Chinese Literature from Taiwan. Num Pages: 212 pages. BIC Classification: FA. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 235 x 158 x 22.
