The book 'To Live' narrates the life stories of a country man called Fu Gui. He was born into a very rich family but he loved gambling. Eventually, he lost all his possessions and became poor. His father died after knowing this, while his mother became seriously ill. Fu Gui went to find a doctor but was forced to join the army on the way. Many years later, after many trials and hardships, Fu Gui went back home and found his mother had passed away while his wife had brought up his son and daughter on her own. Unfortunately, misfortune struck this family again. Fu Gui's wife, son, daughter and grandson died one by one. It was only Fu Gui and an old bull who remained alive. Despite all, Fu Gui was still braver, calmer and more alive than ever.

About the Author:
"Yu Hua is a Chinese author, born April 3, 1960 in Hangzhou, Zhejiang province. He practiced dentistry for five years and later turned to fiction writing in 1983 because he didn't like ""looking into people s mouths the whole day."" Writing allowed him to be more creative and flexible. He grew up during the Cultural Revolution and many of his stories and novels are marked by this experience. One of the distinctive characteristics of his work is his penchant for detailed descriptions of brutal violence. Yu Hua has written four novels, six collections of stories, and three collections of essays. His most important novels are Chronicle of a Blood Merchant and To Live. The latter novel was adapted for film by Zhang Yimou. Because the film was banned in China, it instantly made the novel a bestseller and Yu Hua a worldwide celebrity. His novels have been translated into English, French, German, Italian, Dutch, Persian, Polish, Spanish, Swedish, Hungarian, Serbian, Hebrew, Japanese, Korean and Malayalam."
Review:
There is no proper word for the comment on this book, even the word "great" is insignificant as a description of this book. --Germany Berlin daily

Abstracts I was ten years younger than it is now. to obtain an idle occupation. go to the countryside to collect folk songs. Throughout the summer of that year. I was like a flying sparrow. wandering in the rural areas of cicadas and sun flooded. Farmers the kind I like to drink with a bitter taste of the tea. they Detong on the ridge under a tree. I have no scruples to pick up filled with tea scale teacup to scoop water to drink and brought their own water bottles filled with Tian The men work in the fields. to say a few words nonsense girl because of the sky secretly private laugh sped away. I used to chat with the elderly and one guarding the melon ground for a whole afternoon. I've ever melon to eat most of the time. when I stood up to leave. suddenly like pregnant women falter. Then I became with a grandmother. a woman sitting on the threshold. she edited sandals for me to sing a pregnant woman. My favorite is when evening came. sat in the front of the house of the farmers. to watch them put on well water spilled on the ground. press and hold the transpiration dust. shining the light of the setting sun in the treetops. take a bunch of them fed to the fan. try their salt salty pickles. take a look at a few young women. and men talking. I'm wearing a wide-brimmed straw hat. wearing slippers. a towel hanging on the belt behind it like slapping my ass like a tail. All day yawning mouths rambling walk in the field trail my slippers pit. who trail a little dusty. like wheels rolling outdated scenarios. I wander. already confused which village I have ever been to. and which I have not been. I approached a village. and often heard children shouting: The people of the old yawn here again. So the people in the village knew that telling dirty stories acids song to sing again. In fact. all the dirty story of acid song learned from them. I know all of them interested in what place.
