About Book

Mourning the Breast is a remarkable book about medical self-help, written in a meticulous literary style, in which the author once again adjusts her writing style. It analyzes her own reality of breast cancer from different perspectives, deeply describing her process, reflecting on her physical and mental reactions, and comprehensively exposing the cause and effect of the disease, breaking taboos and hoping for rebirth. On the one hand, it presents the real and illusory life experience of an intellectual facing the enchantment of cancer, and on the other hand, through the extensive and in-depth self-examination throughout the book, it offers practical and effective advice, comfort, and guidance to men and women in society. It is truly an unprecedented masterpiece and very heartwarming and touching.
Xixi, whose real name is Zhang Yan, was born in 1938 in Shanghai, Zhongshan, Guangdong. He graduated from Grantham College in Hong Kong and previously taught there. He currently specializes in literary creation and research, and is a member of the Suye Literature group. His works include over ten books, including the Hongfan edition of "Migratory Birds," "The Elephant is a Fool," "Mother Fish," and "The Book of Ears and Eyes." His diverse literary style, steeped in ancient and modern sources, both Chinese and international, fosters a vibrant and dynamic style. He is one of the most daring contemporary writers to experiment with new techniques and break new ground.
