The novel, narrated in authentic Shanghai dialect, uncovers the city’s most visceral self. First released on an online forum, the book explores how the lives of Shanghai’s different social classes have changed since the 1960s. Critics say author Jin Yucheng has deftly captured on paper his native tongue’s tone, tempo and emotions. The China Academy of Fiction has named it the country’s top fiction work.
