13.Mo Yan won the famous Nobel Prize in literature on Thursday.
Mo was born in Gaomi in Shandong province into a family of farmers in 1955 as Guan Moye.He joined the Peoples Liberation Army as a young man and began his career,according to literary magazine Granta.
Mo told local media in 2003 that his pen name is a word play on his original middle name,but also a reminder to himself that he should talk less and write more.
The author sets his novels in a community based on his hometown.Granta asked him in a recent interview if he has been influenced by other writers,such as American novelist William Faulkner.
"When I first started writing it was the year of 1981,so I didnt read any books by Marquez or Faulkner,"he said,"It was 1984 when I first read their works and undoubtedly those two writers have great influence on my creations.I found that my life experience is quite similar to theirs,but I only discovered this later on.If I had read their works sooner I would have already accomplished a masterpiece like they did."
His novel"Frog"explores China's one-child policy,designed for population control.
He sadly explored the traditional Chinese preference for boys over girls due to the understanding that boys are more able to provide for the family and carry on the family line.
He also is famous for his novels"Red Sorghum,"a story that takes place during the Japanese occupation of China during World War II,and"Big Breasts and Wide Hips,"described as a story about women.
After the award was announced,Chinese national pride swept across the Internet."China",one commenter said on the Nobel website,"is rising".
Mo himself was"overjoyed and scared",Chinese state media reported,quoting a Nobel committee member who informed the author of the prize.
