Cover -- Half Title -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Contents -- List of illustrations -- Contributors -- Preface: Imagining China -- Introduction: My language is not my own: translation, displacement, and contemporary Chinese literature -- Part I Mainland China -- 1 Allegorizing history: Realism and fantasy in Mo Yan's fictional China -- 2 Unattainable maturity: Yu Hua's Cries in the Drizzle as an anti-bildungsroman -- 3 Frankenstein vs. Dracula: Romanticisms and the ideologies of poetry in contemporary China -- 4 Fanhua , global modernism, and the art of detachment

Through an analysis of a wide array of contemporary Chinese literature from inside and outside of China, this volume considers some of the ways in which China and Chineseness are understood and imagined. Using the central theme of the way in which literature has the potential to both reinforce and to undermine a national imaginary, the volume contains chapters offering new perspectives on well-known authors, from Jin Yucheng to Nobel Prize winning Mo Yan, as well as chapters focusing on authors rarely included in discussions of contemporary Chinese literature, such as the expatriate authors Larissa Lai and Xiaolu Guo. The volume is complemented by chapters covering more marginalized literary figures throughout history, such as Macau-born poet Yiling, the Malaysian-born novelist Zhang Guixing, and the ethnically Korean author Kim Hak-ch'l. Invested in issues ranging from identity and representation, to translation and grammar, it is one ofthe few publications of its kind devoting comparable attention to authors from Mainland China, authors from Manchuria, Macau, and Taiwan, and throughout the global Chinese diaspora. Reading China Against the Grain: Imagining Communities isarich resource of literary criticism for students and scholars of Chinese studies, sinophone studies, and comparative literature
