Lost by his mother, adopted by a young switchman, raised with simplicity and love, he is utterly unprepared for the changes that await him and his country. As a young man, he searches for a place to belong in a nation ceaselessly reinventing itself, but he remains on the edges of society. \u003cbr\u003e At forty-one, he meets an unceremonious death, and lacking the money for a burial plot, must roam the afterworld aimlessly. There, over the course of seven days, he encounters the souls of people he's lost. As he retraces the path of his life, we meet an extraordinary cast of characters: his adoptive father, his beautiful ex-wife, his neighbors who perished in the demolition of their homes. Vivid, urgent, and panoramic, Yang Fei's passage movingly traces the contours of his vast nation--its absurdities, its sorrows, and its soul. This searing novel affirms Yu Hua's place as the standard-bearer of Chinese fiction.\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Knopf Doubleday Publishing Group","offers":[{"title":"Seventh Day | Yu Hua | Paperback | 9780804172059 | Used: Very Good | Fiction 1564182 (temp: 1)","offer_id":48163455795352,"sku":"1564182","price":7.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/51rmFhK6KtL.jpg?v=1771883721","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/seventh-day","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
