Can Xue is a master of the dreamscape, crafting stories that inhabit the space where fantasy and reality, the quotidian and the extraordinary, meet. The stories in this striking and lyrical new collection—populated by old married couples, children, cats, and nosy neighbors, the entire menagerie of the everyday—reaffirm her reputation as one of China's most innovative writers.
