"Crocodile" is a magical play written by the renowned author Mo Yan, ten years after he won the Nobel Prize in Literature. Mo Yan once made a vow in front of Shakespeare's statue at his former residence, committing to transform from a novelist to a playwright in the latter half of his life. This book is a testament to that promise and represents Mo Yan's magnificent transformation. The story of "Crocodile" revolves around the protagonist Shan Wudan and the gift he receives at his birthday party, an "alligator." Through brilliant dialogues reminiscent of Shakespeare and imaginative dramatic conflicts, the work vividly portrays a series of typical characters. It not only reflects the author's deep thinking and innovation in literature but also holds profound social significance and serves as an educational warning. Purchase "Crocodile" immediately here.

I haven't read "Crocodile" yet, but after reading the synopsis, it reminds me of the short story "Wedding Present" from "Smoke and Mirrors." So, I would like to recommend "Smoke and Mirrors" to everyone. "Smoke and Mirrors" is Neil Gaiman's first collection of short stories, where he uses exceptional imagination and exquisite description to transform ordinary life into surreal realms. Reading "Smoke and Mirrors" is like entering a whole new reality, veiled in smoke but still within reach. These primal human stories are dangerous and enchanting.

This book revolves around one central question: How can we explain the execution of hundreds of thousands of "witches" during the early modern period in Europe? Why did the rise of capitalism coincide with a war against women? The book is divided into five parts: the daily struggles of peasants and workers before the 15th century, the impact of land privatization and population policies, the rise of the mechanistic body view, the large-scale witch-hunting on the European continent, and the reenactment of witch-hunting strategies in the Americas and the resistance of local women. Silvia Federici engages in a dialogue from a female perspective with Marx's theory of primitive accumulation and Foucault's theory of the body. It presents a powerful challenge to traditional historical narratives and theoretical paradigms. Purchase "Caliban and the Witch" immediately here.

"Di Renjie's Strange Case" is the Chinese version translated by Gao Luopei himself from the English original "Maze Case." Comparing them, although this book translates the main plot from the English manuscript and retains its essence, it differs significantly in many detailed aspects. It was written specifically for the Chinese readership and incorporates rich traditional Chinese characteristics. This makes it a rare and unique book, given that the author is a foreigner. It holds special value and significance for both general readers and literary researchers. Purchase "Di Renjie's Strange Case" immediately here.
