This book tells of the inspirational story of Hua Mulan, the legendary Chinese female warrior who pledges to fight for her family and country in the most unusual way: by disguising herself as a man - a filial “son” who takes the place of her aged and sick father at the battlefront.
Quick-witted and well-skilled in martial arts, Hua MuIan fights valiantly and scores many victories throughout her many years in the army, never once having her real identity revealed. It is only until after the war, however, that our heroine reveals the truth. Stunned by the revelation and greatly moved by her story, Mulan's comrades express their utmost respect and admiration for her great courage and skills, not least her loyalty and devotion to family and country.
The story of Hua Mulan has inspired countless generations through the centuries. With stirring and unforgettable scenes brought vividly to life by creators Xu Deyuan and Jiang Wei, this comic book captures the legendary Chinese heroine at her most brilliant, ensuring that the legend of Mulan, that most enduring symbol of loyalty and filial piety, continues to live on.

From the acclaimed--and controversial--Chinese novelist: a spirited comedy of society running amok in modern China that follows two brothers riding the dizzying roller coaster of life in a newly capitalist world.Baldy Li is a girl-crazy, teenage ne’er-do-well; his stepbrother, Song Gang, is by contrast bookish and compassionate. But despite their differences, they have vowed always to be close. They both, however, love Lin Hong, the most attractive girl in their village. While Baldy Li schemes to win her heart, inadvertently alienating her with his persistent crudeness, Lin Hong falls in love with his more respectable brother. And as the years pass and fortunes are made and lost, the brothers struggle to maintain their ties even as the world around them changes almost beyond recognition. With an unrivalled understanding of Chinese history and a satiric, compassionate eye, Yu Hua has created a book that will resonate with Western readers just as it dazzled--and scandalized--millions of Chinese. By turns comic and tragic, filled with sly humor and a vibrant sense of life in China today, Brothers is the most important work to date from this award-winning writer.
