About This Novel

"Utopia and the Philosopher King" is a concise compilation of Wang Xiaobo's essays, and also includes some of his love letters from his relationship with his lover Li Yinhe. Writer Mr. Zhu Yong said: Most of Wang Xiaobo's essays deal with the cultural status and the fate of intellectuals. Naturally, embarrassment and bitterness are inevitable. Therefore, you cannot just laugh when reading Wang Xiaobo's essays. His humor shows us a mysterious and dark hole. Whether we can taste it briefly or go deep into it all depends on our personal interests. Wang Xiaobo's humor is like an olive with endless aftertaste, which is always fresh when chewed.
