Abstract (summary)

Dai Sijie's novel takes place during the Chinese Cultural Revolution and Balzac and the Chinese Little Tailor indirectly criticizes the communist regime, but in a satirical way. The books of the novel play a central role in the creation and preservation of the personal identities of the characters by means of acts of deviance. They also have a great role in establishing power structures between characters.
