Now one of China's major literary figures, Zhang Xianling spent twenty-two years of his life in Mao's labour reform camps. In 1960, two years into his imprisonment, he began to keep a diary, the sole tangible record of his existence. Grass Soup deciphers the cryptic entries in that remarkable document, miraculously presevred from destruction and returned to its author in 1979.
