From 1830 to 1870 advertising brought in its wake a new understanding of how the subject read and how language operated. Sara Thornton presents a crucial moment in print culture, the early recognition of what we now call a 'virtual' world, and proposes new readings of key texts by Dickens and Balzac.

문화대혁명 기간 중 '부르주아 지식인'으로 낙인찍혀 산골 마을로 재교육을 받으러 간 두 소년과 바느질 소녀와의 사랑과 우정, 발자크에 대한 동경과 찬사를 통해 마오쩌둥 문화대혁명 시대를 유쾌하게 풍자한, 페미나상 수상작가 다이 시지에의 장편 소설. 작가는 '문화대혁명'이라는 중국 현대사의 한 부분을 개인의 문제로 끌어들임으로써 섬세하고도 위트 있는 문장으로 유쾌하면서도 진지한 한 편의 영화 같은 소설을 완성해 낸다. 그가 인터뷰에서 밝힌 바와 같이, 책이 인생을 바꿀 수 있다고 진지하게 생각한 세대의 '책에 대한 동경과 찬사'를 담은 소설. In 1971 Mao's campaign against the intellectuals is at its height. Our narrator and his best friend, Luo, distinctly unintellectual but guilty of being the sons of doctors, have been sent to a remote mountain village to be 're-educated'. The kind of education that takes place among the peasants of Phoenix Mountain involves carting buckets of excrement up and down preciptous, foggy paths, but the two seventeen-year-olds have a violin and their sense of humour to keep them going. Further distraction is provided by the attractive daughter of the local tailor, possessor of a particularly fine pair of feet. Their true re-education starts, however, when they discover a comrade's hidden stash of classics of great nineteenth-century Western literature - Balzac, Dickens, Dumas, Tolstoy and others, in Chinese translation. They need all their ingenuity to get their hands on the forbidden books, but when they do their lives are turned upside down. And not only their lives; after listening to their dangerously seductive retellings of Balzac, the Little Seamstress will never be the same again. --- From the Publisher

"Books about Balzac would fill a fair-sized library. Criticisms on his novels abound, and his contemporaries have provided us with several amusing volumes dealing in a humorous spirit with his eccentricities, and conveying the impression that the author of "La Cousine Bette" and "Le Pere Goriot" was nothing more than an amiable buffoon.

Every writer is a player in the marketplace for literature. Jonathan Paine locates the economics ingrained within the stories themselves, showing how the business of literature affects even storytelling devices such as genre, plot, and repetition. In this new model of criticism, the text is a record of its author's sales pitch.
