The Years, Months, Days: Two Novellas by Yan Lianke
challenging
dark
reflective
slow-paced
2.0
the first story reminded me of "the old man and the sea," with an old man attempting to do something impossible by convincing himself of future bounty, with tragic results; and the second story was clearly satire of SOMETHING, but I don't know what, so yo me it was just disturbing and tragic.
tl;dr: I did not really understand either of these stories and found them hard to get through.
