The Ordinary World
The Ordinary World is a novel created by Lu Yao, a Chinese writer, which is composed of three sections and 1 million characters. The book takes place in China in the ten years between the mid-1970s and mid-1980s. Through the complicated contradictions and disputes of two brothers-- Sun Shao'an and Sun Shaoping, the novel portrays ordinary people from each level of social hierarchy and deeply demonstrates the arduous and tortuous path that this historical period went through. In March 1991, the novel won the third Chinese Mao Dun Literature Award.
