Overview

Yutang Sang worked as an advanced news editor in the Xinjiang Radio and Television Bureau before retiring. He writes novels, essays, editorials, and jokes. In this creative volume, he recalls his hometown Shuangqiao in Zhangjiagang, Suzhou City, Jiangsu Province in China. He documents its prosperity, its tragedies, its colorful residents, historical events, and crucial institutions. The memoir is a beautiful combination of factual recollection and whimsical poetry drawing on both Yutang's memory as well as his imagination. Functioning as memoir, creative non-fiction, and anthropological study detailing the times before and after Mao's revolution, My Small Town is an invaluable document for both academic and pleasure reading.
