«La montaña del alma» is a novel by Gao Xingjian, published by Ediciones del Bronce in paperback (656 pages, in Spanish).
Chance brings two strangers into contact on a train when their teacups clash; the protagonist sets off on the trail of a legendary mountain. The journey through rural China becomes a portrait of its people and customs, and a reflection on identity, memory, and the relationship between human beings and nature.
Gao Xingjian won the Nobel Prize in Literature in 2000. The work was originally published in Chinese in 1990 as «靈山»; this Spanish edition came out in 2002.
Recommended for readers of contemporary fiction interested in Chinese literature and introspective travel narratives.
