Forlagsbeskrivelse af The Gale af Yan Mo
A contemplative semiautobiographical picture book by Nobel Laureate Mo Yan and illustrated by Hans Christian anderson Award nominee Zhu Chengliang. This contemplative, semiautobiographical picture book by Nobel Laureate Mo Yan, with illustrations by Hans Christian anderson Award nominee Zhu Chengliang, is perfect for readers of A Different Pond and Watercress.One morning, so early that fog still sleeps on the surface of the river, a young boy accompanies his yeye seven miles north to the grassy field behind their home to cut satintail to feed the livestock. But when a massive gale scatters the hay—and a whole day’s work—important lessons will need to be learned about endurance, impermanence, and how to let go and weather the storm in a world that can often feel overwhelming and uncontrollable. In sparse, lyrical prose interpreted by critically acclaimed author-illustrator Ying-Hwa Hu, The Gale is the first-ever picture book by the Nobel Prize–winning author of celebrated classics like Red Sorghum and Life and Death Are Wearing Me Out. It is adapted from the novella of the same name.
