One Man's Bible - Gao Xingjian - 9780066211329 - Hardcover

One Man's Bible - Gao Xingjian - HarperCollins - 9780066211329 - 2de Hands - Goed - Hardcover - One Man's Bible is a fictionalized account of Gao Xingjian's life under the Chinese Communist regime. Daily life is riddled with paranoia and fear, and government propaganda turns citizens against one another. It is a place where a single sentence spoken ten years earlier can make one an enemy of the state. But One Man's Bible is also a profound meditation on the essence of writing, on exile, on the effects of political oppression on the human spirit, and on how the human spirit can triumph.
