Soul Mountain is a novel by Gao Xingjian.
 The novel is loosely based on the author's own journey into rural China, which was inspired by a false diagnosis of lung cancer.
 The novel is a part autobiographical, part fictional account of a man's journey to find the fabled mountain Lingshan.
 It is a combination of story fragments, travel accounts, unnamed characters (referred to by the pronouns "I", "you", "she", etc.), and folk poetry/legends.
 An English version translated by Mabel Lee was published in the United States on December 5, 2000.
The Bus Stop is a Chinese absurdist play written in 1981 by Gao Xingjian.
 Though originally completed in 1981, a second draft wasn't completed until 1982, and the play was not performed on stage until 1983.
 The play premiered at the Beijing People's Art Theatre and was directed by Lin Zhaohua, the Deputy Director of the People's Art Theatre.
 Though appreciated by many audiences, the original run was shut down by the Anti-Spiritual Pollution Campaign after only 13 performances.
 Now banned from performance in mainland China, "The Bus Stop" remains an influential text in Chinese absurdist drama.
