O knihe
Iconic in her home country of Taiwan, this is the first time Sanmao's part travelogue, part memoir has been translated into English.
From the difficulties and pleasures of building a home and life in the desert as a foreigner to navigating local politics, from surviving a dangerous encounter deep in the disorientating dunes to being struck down by a mysterious and near-fatal illness, Sanmao's life in the desert was astonishingly rich and varied.
Curious about everything and everyone, unfailingly warm-hearted and brave, Sanmao is a captivating narrator and heroine. Her voice, presented here in English for the very first time, leaps from the page with vitality and humour.
