«Par une nuit où la lune ne s'est pas levée» is the historical novel by Dai Sijie, published by Gallimard in paperback (370 pages, in French).
The novel follows the vicissitudes of a manuscript on a silk scroll over the centuries, a common thread that allows Dai Sijie to travel through the history of China and of Buddhism. With a structure of deftly linked narratives, it pays homage to the most subtle creations of the spirit, especially to the written and calligraphed language.
This edition belongs to Gallimard's Folio collection, in pocket format.
For readers of fiction set in China, with an interest in the history of Buddhism and written culture.
Dai Sijie is a Chinese French author and filmmaker living in France since 1984. He writes in French. His first novel, Balzac and the Little Chinese Seamstress, written in French, was a best seller and has been translated into more than 25 languages.
