Notes of a crocodile  Cover Image Book Book

Notes of a crocodile / by Qiu Miaojin ; translated by Bonnie Huie.

Qiu, Miaojin, 1969-1995 (author.). Huie, Bonnie, (translator.).

Summary:

Told through the eyes of an anonymous lesbian narrator nicknamed Lazi, this cult classic is a postmodern pastiche of diaries, vignettes, mash notes, aphorisms, exegesis, and satire by an incisive prose stylist and major counter-cultural figure. Afflicted by her fatalistic attraction to Shui Ling, an older woman, Lazi turns for support to a circle of friends that includes a rich kid turned criminal and his troubled, self-destructive gay lover, as well as a bored, mischievous overachiever and her alluring slacker artist girlfriend.
