The great Chinese artist Zhu Qizhan was born in 1892 and lived to be 105 years old. During his life, he witnessed the Boxer Rebellion, the fall of the Qing Dynasty, the civil war between the Nationalists and the Communists, the Sino-Japanese War, Japan’s occupation of China during World War II, the Cultural Revolution...a full lifetime indeed, packed with struggle, love, conflict, and always, art. In 1992, when Deep in the Mountains begins, Zhu, the teller of tales, is 100 years old, still pushing himself to create, still experimenting with form and color. A lonely boy from the other side of the earth enters Zhu’s world. Through the artist’s stories of the past, the present, and the future, the boy learns who he is and what he can become in this beautiful, haunting story of growing up and accepting life’s challenges--and its joys.

Terrence Cheng’s first novel, Sons of Heaven, was universally critically acclaimed. Publishers Weekly said it is "a rare find: historical and political without being pedantic, and briskly entertaining without being cheap, simplistic, or contrived," while Library Journal called it "a ripping good story." Cheng was a James Michener Fellow at the University of Miami, where he earned his MFA. He lives in New York City.
