A classic of Chinese literature, “Lao She’s great novel” depicts an orphaned working class man determined to realize his dreams in 1930s Beijing (New York Times).

Originally published in 1937, Rickshaw Boy—and the power and artistry of Lao She—can now be appreciated by a contemporary American audience. “An impressive novel of an individual struggling against and defeated by a corrupt society. Recommended for readers who enjoy modern tragedies such as Jane Smiley’s A Thousand Acres.” —Library Journal

The novel, Rickshaw Boy, also known as Camel Xiangzi/Luotuo Xiangzi (骆驼祥子), is a contemporary literary masterpiece written by the Chinese novelist, Lao She/Shu Qingchun (老舍/舒庆春, 1899-1966). The novel describes the tragic fate and exploitation of rickshaw pullers during the period of social unrest and turmoil in the 1920s (before the revolution of 1949). Specifically, "Camel Xiangzi" tells the life experience of a young, strong and enthusiastic rickshaw driver, Xiangzi (祥子), in China's Peiping City (name of Beijing 1928-1949, 中国北平城). In fact, Xiangzi is a representative of the working masses of the old Chinese society. Xiangzi, coming from the countryside, is a bankrupt young farmer. He is hardworking, simple, kind and always eager to buy his own rickshaw with honest labor. To be an independent rickshaw puller is Xiangzi's wish, hope, and even religion. With hard work and perseverance, he spent three years saving money, and finally realized his goal and became a self-supporting rickshaw puller. However, just six months after pulling, the rickshaw was destroyed. Xiangzi was not discouraged, and again started stubbornly from the beginning, and started to save money. However, all his savings were blackmailed and looted by selfish people he trusted the most. The book has 10 chapters in the following order: Chapter 1: Three years of hard work, Xiangzi buys a rickshaw (第一章：奋战三年，祥子买车) Chapter 2: The rickshaw was taken away (第二章：车被收走，祥子被迫行军) Chapter 3: Xiangzi flees and sells camels (第三章：祥子出逃，卖了骆驼 ) Chapter 4: Xiangzi desperately earns money (第四章：祥子拼命挣钱，包月不久辞职) Chapter 5: Xiangzi was lured by Hu Niu (第五章：祥子被虎妞引诱) Chapter 6: The rickshaw was broken (第六章：祥子拉包月摔坏了车) Chapter 7: Hu Niu fakes pregnancy (第七章：虎妞假怀孕，找祥子要说法 ) Chapter 8: Xiangzi's money was blackmailed by Detective Sun (第八章：祥子的钱被孙侦探勒索干净) Chapter 9: Xiangzi and Hu Niu get married (第九章：祥子和虎妞结婚虎妞难产去世) Chapter 10: Xiaofuzi commits suicide, Xiangzi becomes depraved (第十章：小福子自杀祥子变堕落) The current book volume, China's Great Contemporary Literature 2, is a Level 5 Chinese reading practice book. It would introduce you to the famous Chinese novel Luotuo Xiangzi (骆驼祥子). The new volume in China's Great Contemporary Literature (中国当代文学, 精简版, simplified edition) includes both the Chinese text (simplified characters) and pinyin Romanization. With over 1000 unique Chinese characters, the volume would be suitable for the beginners, lower intermediate and advanced level Chinese language learners (HSK 1-6). Overall, the reading series offers you a variety of elementary level books (Level 1/2/3/4/5/6) to understand China as well as practice Chinese reading fast.

Although official propaganda emphasizes the Chinese Dream as the dream of all Chinese, the opportunities of achieving the prosperity by legal means are distributed unequally. Crime and the Chinese Dream reveals how people on the margins of Chinese society find their way to the Chinese Dream through illegal or deviant behaviours. The case studies in this book include corrupt doctors in public hospitals in Beijing, fraudsters in a village called ‘cake uncles’, illegal motorcycle taxi drivers in Guangzhou, drug users being ‘re-educated’ in detention centres, and internet addicts who are treated as criminals by the system. Despite the patriotic and collectivistic tint of the official dream metaphor, the contributors to this volume show that the Chinese Dream is essentially a state capitalist dream, which is embedded within the problems and opportunities of capitalism, as well as a dream of control. ‘An original and important contribution to comparative criminology, international studies, and crime and justice research in China, this book highlights the ironies present in the American Dream that exist in the Chinese Dream as well. It contains diverse research topics that separate ideology from reality, and Bakken’s excellent introduction frames them in the literatures on social problems and social inequality.’ —Henry N. Pontell, John Jay College of Criminal Justice, City University of New York ‘This is an outstanding collection of essays which importantly enlarges the terms of debate on crime in China. It reveals how China is complex, not only because of its internal social and economic diversity, but also because of integration into global capitalism, with all its inherent inequalities and commodification.’ —Bill Hebenton, Centre for Criminology and Criminal Justice, University of Manchester

This analysis of every facet of a national identity makes it less likely that the next great explosion in the Commmunist world - and its consequences - will come as a surprise. It investigates tendencies in China that might lead it down the same path as Russia and Yugoslavia.
