Born in Hangzhou in Chine in 1960, Yu Hua was first a dentist before making a name for himself as one of the most talented novelists of contemporary Chinese literature. In his latest novel, Brothers, he paints the portrait of a couple of half-brothers, parallel to describing the China of the past fifty years, including its most bloody tragedies and its most intimate scars. Through these characters, a whole generation is depicted with realism and exactitude.
