Synopsis

Dream of Flying Flowers is a beautifully written coming-of-age novel. It tells the story ot 15-year-old Lin Sen (Lin being the surname), a high school student from rural China. Bitterly disappointed about his life, family and the whole society, Lin decides to drown himself in a river. However, Lin's suicide is turned into a murder case, and the truth about his death is known only to a mentally ill beggar.

Nostalgic and heart-wrenching, Dream of Flying Flowers is an honest illustration of a Chinese teenager's futile struggle to defy the merciless, crushing weight of social reality. Can anyone ever evade the manipulation of fate? Or, perhaps idealism is only a laughing matter as easily forgiven and forgotten as the fallen cherry blossoms?

A propos du livre

À propos des auteurs

Xie Lu (Xie being the surname) is a Chinese author whose style is deeply influenced by classic Chinese literature as well as contemporary European and American masterpieces. His language is refreshing, fluent and poetic, his settings similar to those in movie scripts. His female characters are as three-dimensional as his representation of nature's stunning beauty. Dream of Flying Flowers is a full-length coming-of-age novel that Xie completed in his high-school years. His other books include Tears of the Stars, Songs upon the Clouds and I Wish You Well.
