Book Description


MIDNIGHT BANQUET, written by China's best-selling author Pang Bei, is a novel integrating Zen Buddhism, poetry, knowledge and mystery. It is a painting, a poem, a tree and a maze of a Classical Chinese garden. By deciphering the codes of an ancient painting, Night Revels of Han Xizai, a historiographer of the Southern Tang Dynasty (937-975), it takes readers back to an inextricable labyrinth of history, one of space and time, and one of humanity and destiny as well. It is a perfect combination of the characteristics of a knowledge-based mystery novel of the West and the artistic conception of a Chinese classic as well as a breath-taking treasure-hunting story. While Professor Robert Langdon in The Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown is looking for the Holy Grail, Mr. Lin, son of a feudal general, the protagonist in MIDNIGHT BANQUET the Chinese version of The Da Vinci Code, is looking for the Imperial Seal, a symbol of the Divinely-Ordained power of Kings, an object fought for by a line of kings since the first emperor of China. The Imperial Seal is, in fact, an equivalent of the Holy Grail in ancient China in the East. Similar to the Goldfinch by Donna Tartt,MIDNIGHT BANQUET   also revolves around a well-known painting. Pang Bei, author of this novel, is hailed as the father of knowledge-based mystery novel in China. 一幅图,一首诗,一棵树,一座迷宫般的中国古典园林。庞贝长篇小说《无尽藏》集禅意、诗意、知识和悬疑于一体,通过破译古画《韩熙载夜宴图》,将人们带入烟雾缭绕的历史迷宫里。这是空间的迷宫和时间的迷宫,也是人性的迷宫和命运的迷宫。这部作品是西方知识悬疑小说与中国古典意境的完美结合,也是一个扣人心弦的寻宝故事。在丹布朗的《达芬奇密码》中,兰登教授苦苦寻找的秘藏是圣杯,而在《无尽藏》这部中国版的《达芬奇密码》中,主人公林公子寻找的秘藏是传国玉玺”——传自秦始皇的中国历代帝王必欲争夺的皇权天授的象征物。宝玺便是圣杯在东方中国的对应物。与唐娜塔特的《金翅雀》异曲同工,《无尽藏》也是以一幅名画为创意。庞贝也被誉为中国知识悬疑小说第一人
