New in the Harper Perennial Modern Chinese Classics series, Border Town is a classic Chinese novel--banned by Mao's regime--that captures the ideals of rural China through the moving story of a young woman and her grandfather. Originally published in 1934 by author Shen Congwen, this beautifully written novel tells the story of Cuicui, a young country girl who is coming of age in rural China in the tumultuous time before the communist revolution.
