批評家のレビュー

"In this magnificent collection of stories, the author vividly captures the desires and losses of a richly drawn cast while drawing on the realities of contemporary China." (Cosmopolitan)

"Te-Ping Chen’s Land of Big Numbers contains 10 illuminating, sharp stories set in China, penned by a former investigative reporter who worked in Beijing for several years." (The Independent)

"Te-Ping Chen shows us how much life, loss, and quiet pleasure exists in the world, just out of view." (Alexandra Kleeman, author of You Too Can Have a Body Like Mine)

あらすじ・解説

A dazzling debut collection which, deftly and urgently, tells the stories of those living in the biggest and most complicated country on Earth.

A Barack Obama Reading List Selection for Summer 2021.

A brother competes for gaming glory while his twin sister exposes the dark side of the Communist government on her underground blog; a worker at a government call centre is alarmed one day to find herself speaking to a former lover; a delicious new fruit arrives at the neighbourhood market, and the locals find it starts to affect their lives in ways they could never have imagined; and a young woman's dreams of making it big in Shanghai are stalled when she finds herself working as a florist.

These are just some of the myriad lives to be evoked in the Land of Big Numbers, a collection of stories which - sometimes playfully, sometimes darkly - draws back the curtain on the realities of modern China and unveils a cast of characters as rich and complicated as any in world literature. With virtuosic brilliance, Te-Ping Chen sheds light on a country much talked about but little understood and announces the birth of a bright new star in the literary firmament.
