Description
Into the Desert is the story of two village women in Western China in the 1990s,
on the edge of the Gobi Desert, near the site of the ancient Silk Road. Bound together by both poverty and tradition, they embark upon a perilous journey to change their fates.
This short novel was adapted and co-translated by Howard Goldblatt, a preeminent
American sinologist and translator of Chinese literature, as well as his wife Dr.
Sylvia Li-chun Lin, from two volumes of Xue Mo’s Desert Trilogy: White Tiger
Pass and Desert Rites. In June 2022, Into the Desert was first published by Long
River Press, a San Francisco-based imprint of Sinomedia International Group.
In February 2023, Into the Desert won the Best Translated Book Award by China
International Communications Group.
