It also came with a financial award of $ 1.2 million. “I grew up in an environment immersed in Chinese folk culture, which inevitably (不可避免地 ) come i【小题4】my novels when I pick up a pen to write. This has definitely affected -even d【小题5】- my novels’ artistic style.”Mo told the reporters s【小题6】after he won the award.

“Mo Yan d【小题7】the prize for what he has achieved.” said Eric Abrahamsent, a critic and founder of Paper Republic, and English-language website on Chinese literature. “Throughout his l【小题8】he has done much to develop the language and style of contemporary Chinese literature.”
