Life
Chinese writer, playwright and painter Gao Xingjian grew up in Jiangxi Province in eastern China. During the 1980s he published a variety of plays, poems and essays that were considered subversive by the Chinese regime. The increasing level of criticism led Gao Xingjian to settle in France, and he is now a French citizen. Gao Xingjian left the Communist Party in China in connection with the Tiananmen Square massacre.

Work
A hallmark of Gao Xingjian’s writing is the blending of traditional Chinese literature and drama with a Western and modernist form. The novel Soul Mountain (1999) is based on impressions from journeys in southern and southwestern China, which Gao undertook when persecution from the Chinese regime increased. The book is a medley of genres and techniques, with a shifting narrative perspective and tales of people Gao met on the road: monks, folk musicians, a victim of the Cultural Revolution and others.

生平
中国作家、剧作家和画家高行健在中国东部的江西省长大。在20世纪80年代，他发表了各种被中国政权认为是颠覆性的剧本、诗歌和散文。越来越多的批评导致高行健在法国定居，他现在是法国公民。高行健因天安门屠杀事件而离开中国共产党。

工作
高行健写作的一个特点是将中国传统文学和戏剧与西方和现代主义形式相融合。小说《灵山》（1999年）是根据高行健在中国南部和西南部的旅行印象写成的，当时中共政权的迫害加剧，高行健进行了旅行。该书是各种体裁和技巧的混合体，叙述角度不断变化，讲述了高在路上遇到的人：和尚、民间音乐家、文化大革命的受害者和其他人。
