Summary
Wei Hui: Shanghai baby
Explicit like Miller's The Reverse of Cancer, shocking like Welsh's Trainspotting - these were the words one critic greeted the publication of the novel Shanghai baby by the Chinese writer Wei Hui.
And indeed: the controversial confession of the sensitive Coco about her own love and sexual experiences mixed up the contradictions both in the East and in the West of the eternal themes of love and desire, hedonism and spiritualism, sacred and profane. This provocative novel, extremely erotic and beautifully written, describes an unknown China on the threshold of a social and sexual revolution in such a way that the Chinese government was forced to ban it.
