An epic Chinese tale in the vein of The Last Emperor, Wolf Totem depicts the dying culture of the Mongols-the ancestors of the Mongol hordes who at one time terrorized the world-and the parallel extinction of the animal they believe to be sacred: the fierce and otherworldly Mongolian wolf
Published under a pen name, Wolf Totem was a phenomenon in China, breaking all sales records there and earning the distinction of being the second most read book after Mao's little red book. There has been much international excitement too-to date, rights have been sold in thirteen countries. Wolf Totem is set in 1960s China-the time of the Great Leap Forward, on the eve of the Cultural Revolution.
Searching for spirituality, Beijing intellectual Chen Zhen travels to the pristine grasslands of Inner Mongolia to live among the nomadic Mongols-a proud, brave, and ancient race of people who coexist in perfect harmony with their unspeakably beautiful but cruel natural surroundings. Their philosophy of maintaining a balance with nature is the ground stone of their religion, a kind of cult of the wolf.
The fierce wolves that haunt the steppes of the unforgiving grassland searching for food are locked with the nomads in a profoundly spiritual battle for survival-a life-and-death dance that has gone on between them for thousands of years. The Mongols believe that the wolf is a great and worthy foe that they are divinely instructed to contend with, but also to worship and to learn from. Chen's own encounters with the otherworldly wolves awake a latent primitive instinct in him, and his fascination with them blossoms into obsession, then reverence.
After many years, the peace is shattered with the arrival of Chen's kinfolk, Han Chinese, sent from the cities to bring modernity to the grasslands. They immediately launch a campaign to exterminate the wolves, sending the balance that has been maintained with religious dedication for thousands of years into a spiral leading to extinction-first the wolves, then the Mongol culture, finally the land. As a result of the eradication of the wolves, rats become a plague and wild sheep graze until the meadows turn to dust. Mongolian dust storms glide over Beijing, sometimes blocking out the moon.
Part period epic, part fable for modern days, Wolf Totem is a stinging social commentary on the dangers of China's overaccelerated economic growth as well as a fascinating immersion into the heart of Chinese culture.

鐵木真狼性遠勝希特勒 深批<狼圖騰> 不妨這樣對比 希特勒的理論雅力安是高等種族,是猶太,斯拉夫等種 族是劣種。二 戰最嚴重受害者是猶太人,應該說被奴役和屠殺的都有。如果 時間在長,的確會被滅絕。而納粹對其他民族和國傢是徵服和奴役成份多。 鐵木真的指導方針可以...
評分許多人對《狼圖騰》贊譽有加,最近還被拍成瞭電影,我分三次終於勉強看完瞭這本書,直覺上覺得很不感冒,可是還是努力發掘其中的優點,我的態度算挺端正的瞭。 首先作者極力描述草原的秀麗風光,文筆細膩,可並不代錶就是精彩,甚至有些纍贅,不過那麼用心地寫,沒有功...
評分終於看完瞭《狼圖騰》,這本網絡上很火的書。很想把這本書摔到一邊去瞭,但答應瞭華子姐,還是碼兩句。華子姐要有心裏準備,我這個養狗的嘴裏肯定吐不齣狼牙。 全書有三條綫,作者把自己的理念按這三條綫一一述說下來,我也按這三條綫來說說我的讀後感。 ...
評分就我個人來說,雖然我對儒傢學說一直抱有不小的好感和興趣,但對於批判儒傢的文章,也能心平氣和地閱讀。我同時還是對什麼“國民性”一嚮嗤之以鼻的民族主義者,但是看到魯迅談論劣根性的文章也不會氣得跳腳。隻要是言論有其可取之處,邏輯上能夠自洽,即便與我觀點相左也無妨...
評分沒救瞭中國 就這等邪書僻傳居然還能暢銷. 中國現在缺少的是普遍的人性,不是狼性,tnnd. 現世中國駁雜異數之思想紛呈現狀令人驚訝.
