One Man's Bible

One Man's Bible by Gao XingJian was among a purchase at an internet second hand bookshop. I had found the book I wanted (The Heroes) and checked other novels out to see if I can reach the free delivery quota. And I did and this was one of the novels purchased to fill the shipping quota.

It turned out that it is the type of novel I was always reluctant to read but when I do I was not able to stop reading. I liked the story structure (it is a story but presented in vignettes of past events, more recent events that caused the remembrence of those past events and thoughts and thoughts and thoughts. I really liked it and will look for more novels from this writer.

Here is a page that contains some of the thoughts that I liked while reading it
