Sinopsis
Winner, 2024 English PEN Translates Award
From 1976 to 1989, Hai Fan was part of the guerrilla forces of the Malayan Communist Party, and these short stories are inspired by his experiences in the rainforest.
Struggling through an arduous trek, two comrades pine for each other but don’t know how to declare their love; a woman who has annoyed all her comrades finally wins their approval when she finds a mythical mousedeer; improvising around the lack of ingredients, a perpetually hungry guerrilla makes delicious cakes from cassava and elephant fat. The rainforest may be a dangerous place where death awaits, but so do love, desire and hope.
Delicious Hunger is a book about the moments in and between warfare, when hunger is so palpable it can be tasted, and the natural world becomes an extension of the body. Deftly translated from Mandarin by Jeremy Tiang, Hai Fan’s stories are about a group of people who chose to fight for a better world and, in the process, built their own.
