Résumé


‘I had seen so many men celebrated and then disgraced, and so many men disgraced and then rehabilitated, that for a long time I kept the hope of someday being deemed worthy of the history of our country.

In this enigmatic novella, one hears of the life of a litterateur before, during, and after the Great Revolution.
The Peking Opera Reform was awarded the Prix Décembre in 2013.
