Description

A New York Times Editors' Choice and Notable Book of 2021

Best Science Fiction, Fantasy and Horror of 2021*--The Washington Post*****

From one of the most exciting voices in contemporary Chinese literature, an uncanny and playful novel that blurs the line between human and beast...

In the fictional Chinese city of Yong'an, an amateur cryptozoologist is commissioned to uncover the stories of its fabled beasts. These creatures live alongside humans in near-inconspicuousness--save their greenish skin, serrated earlobes, and strange birthmarks.
Aided by her elusive former professor and his enigmatic assistant, our narrator sets off to document each beast, and is slowly drawn deeper into a mystery that threatens her very sense of self.

Part detective story, part metaphysical enquiry, Strange Beasts of China engages existential questions of identity, humanity, love and morality with whimsy and stylistic verve.
