"Rickshaw" is one of Lao She's finest novels, considered a classic of 20th-century Chinese literature.
For centuries, rickshaw pullers—people disenfranchised and at the very bottom of society—have plied the bustling streets of Beijing, pulling carts and carrying passengers around the city.
Lao She tells the story of one such puller, an orphan named Xiangzi, nicknamed Camel—a simple-minded and honest man whose cherished dream was to save up for his own wheelchair, ensuring a stable income and independence. Xiangzi is determined, denying himself everything; he works from dawn to dusk for four years and nearly achieves his cherished goal, but in one moment, the rickshaw puller loses everything...
Will Xiangzi's dream become reality, or will it forever remain a dream of a better life?
