China Dream

Ma Daode is feeling pleased with himself. He has just been appointed Director of the China Dream Bureau, tasked with overwriting peopleâ€™s private dreams with President Xiâ€™s great China Dream of national rejuvenation. He has an impressive office, three properties and a bevy of mistresses texting him night and day.

But just as Ma Daode is putting the finishing touches to his plan for a mass golden wedding anniversary celebration, things take an uneasy turn. Suddenly plagued by flashbacks of the Cultural Revolution, Ma Daodeâ€™s nightmares from the past threaten to undo his dream of a glorious future. The only solution is to get hold of the secret recipe for a legendary broth of amnesia that will eradicate history for good.

In China Dream Ma Jian takes the reader on a tragi-comic ride through the horrors and absurdities of totalitarian power. His dystopian vision is set not in the future, but in China today.
