From the Dust Jacket: "As the Cultural Revolution rages, a gulag of labor camps in China's remote countryside teaches 'capitalist roaders' and criminals alike 'reform through labor.' There Zhang, a 'rightist' poet meets and falls in love with Huang, a peasant woman jailed for promiscuity... Their relationship becomes the lens in which we see, and feel, the warping effects of the Cultural Revolution on ordinary people... The first novel of China's gulag to appear in the West, it was published in China in late 1985 to great popular enthusiasm, and much controversy because of its unaccustomed frankness about sex."

Maps, xvii + 285pp, deacquisitioned ex-library copy with usual stamps and markings, edges trifle foxed, remainder mark upper edge, dustjacket little shelf worn, a sound secondhand hardback copy. "Half of Man is Woman is a novel about one man, a writer, who some years before the book opens has been sent to an agricultural labour camp in north-west China because he dares to write poetry. "For the Western reader, there is much to admire in Half of Man is Woman. There are extraordinarily lyrical descriptions of the landscape of northwestern China; vivid portraits of camp inmates and peasants as they live their daily lives; and a poignant portrait of a love affair, wrought out of impossible circumstances, doomed to failure.""
