Zhang Xianliang (Chinese: 张贤亮; December 1936 – 27 September 2014) was a Chinese author and poet, and former president of the China Writer Association in Ningxia. He was detained as a political prisoner during the Anti-Rightist Movement in 1957, until his political rehabilitation in 1979. His most well known works, including Half of Man is Woman and Grass Soup, were semi-autobiographical reflections on his life experiences in prison and in witnessing the political upheaval of China during the Cultural Revolution.

Quotes by Zhang Xianliang (?)

“I had felt the strange happiness countless times. When a shovel met my hand, the damp of a hemp bag soaked my shoulder or rice weighed down my back, I entered a mindless oblivion, as if I had put on magic shoes and could jump out into the abyss, could even jump into death.”
― Zhang Xianliang, Half of Man Is Woman

“وسط نسيم المساء، سرى بجسده تيار دافئ، وشعر أن والده لم يكن ليستوعب حقًا حالته الروحية تلك حينما قال إنه يتمتع بإيمان راسخ، فأي معرفة عقلية هي خاوية إذا لم تكن قائمة على أساس العاطفة، ففي بعض الجوانب، وبعض الأحيان، تكون العاطفة أهم من العقل!”

“نفذ ضوء القمر الضبابي عبر الستار الشفاف، فبدت رقع الضوء المتناثرة فوق السجادة والأريكة والفراش كأنها قطع من الألماس، وتجلى أمامه في ضوء القمر الخافت انطباعه عن ذلك اليوم بوضوح. لم يشعر سوى بأنه لا يألف ولا يعتاد على كل هذا، فعلى الرغم من عودة والده، فقد صار ومع الأسف شخصًا غريبًا عنه تمامًا! كأنما عاد ليستدعي ذكريات معاناته ويهدم استقراره.. لم يكن ذلك حُلمًا، كان ينام إلى جواره حقًّا على فراش ناعم. لم يكن ذلك حُلمًا! أخذ يتحسس الفراش أسفل جسده، كم كان مُختلفًا عن ذلك المزود الخشبي الخشن!”
