In this expansive, award-winning novel, celebrated Chinese writer Liu Xinwu warmly invites you to an epic, raucous, and poignant neighborhood feast. On a crisp December morning in 1982, the courtyard of a bustling Beijing siheyuan—a vibrant quadrangle of homes—begins to awaken. Auntie Xue's son Jiyue is getting married today, and she is determined to make the day a resounding success. Despite Jiyue's lamentable ignorance in matters of the heart—and the body. Despite a chef in training tasked with the arduous responsibility of preparing the banquet. With a cross-generational multitude of guests, ranging from anxious family members to a fretful bridal party—not to mention exasperating friends, interfering neighbors, and wedding crashers—what will the day ahead bring? Set at a pivotal point after the turmoil of the Chinese Cultural Revolution, Liu Xinwu's tale weaves together a rich tapestry of characters, intertwined lives, and stories within stories. The Wedding Party is a touching, hilarious portrait of life in this singular city, all packed into a Beijing courtyard on a single day that manages to be both perfectly normal and utterly extraordinary at the same time.
