MAYA FLEISHMANN, BOOKPAGE

"Ethereal ... Beautifully metaphoric and insightful. Song Yan’s first-person narrative reveals the full richness of her mind and senses, which have been stifled by her fear of shame and the disregard of her husband and mother-in-law. Throughout this haunting social commentary, Yu’s lyrical language and atmospheric descriptions bring out the contrast between Song Yan’s oppressive, superficial reality and the hypnotic world where she converses with fungi."


KIRKUS

"A semisurreal novel that contrasts the immediacy of daily life in Beijing with a mesmerizing dreamscape ... A mood of yearning and a search for emotional freedom drive this simply told yet enigmatic story that includes bursts of imaginative flare, often lit by an orange glow. Intimate, melancholic, unresolved—perhaps frustratingly so for some readers—yet hopeful, Yu’s story offers a restless female perspective working toward clarity. Dreamy and questioning, an unsettling novel composed of wistful notes."
