Stick Out Your Tongue by Ma Jian
A Chinese writer travels to Tibet. As he wanders through the countryside, he witnesses the sky burial of a Tibetan woman who died during childbirth, shares a tent with a nomad, meets a silversmith who has hung the wind-dried corpse of his lover to the walls of his cave, and hears the story of a young female incarnate lama.
Praise for Red Dust: 'A tour de force' - IndependentPraise for The Noodle Maker: 'Playful and wonderfully dark, The Noodle Maker confirms Ma Jian as a Chinese kundera. The funniest book I've read in a long time' - Philip Marsden
