The Ten Thousand Things (Spurling novel): '''''The Ten Thousand Things''''' is a historical novel by author and playwright John Spurling, based on life of 14th-century Chinese artist Wang Meng during the Yuan dynasty. It was published by Duckworth Overlook in 2014 and won the Walter Scott Prize in 2015. Spurling worked on the book for over fifteen years and in the process his work was rejected by 44 publishers.

As the Yuan dynasty, founded by Kublai Khan of the Mongol Empire, was the first foreign empire to rule a large part of China, the themes of loyalty and a non-native ruler form major parts of the novel.
