Description
"After a shattering defeat for China in an international wrestling competition, a group of profiteers seeks out a young athletic hero to restore the country's damaged pride. In search of a living practitioner of a legendary fighting technique, the scouts find their man. Ironically, he is no warrior, but rather a slacker pedicab driver. What follows is a surreal, comic journey that includes a sex-change operation, an encounter with Buddha himself, and a humiliation competition where nations vie by performing feats of self-degradation." "Please Don't Call Me Human is a Fellini-esque satire of nationalism, the Olympics, and the cult of celebrity."--BOOK JACKET.
