One of the first full-length stream-of-consciousness novels written in Chinese, The Drunkard has been called the Hong Kong novel, and was first published in 1962. As the narrator, a writer at odds with a philistine world, sinks to his drunken nadir, his plight can be seen to represent that of a whole culture degraded by the forces of history.
