Push Hands: A Tai Chi Novel

By Angelika Fritz

In a Tai Chi workshop, everyone is trying to learn. Not everyone succeeds.

One weekend, a group of Tai Chi practitioners gather for a workshop. They come to learn about push hands, applications, and the art of letting go. But beneath the slow movements and polite corrections, other tensions begin to surface.

Zhang Wei, the experienced guest Tai Chi teacher, watches, corrects, and quietly notices everything. Movement by movement, break by break, partner by partner. The people are the kind he has seen many times before.

Push Hands is a novel about what happens when people who practice Tai Chi come together: human interactions, ego and embodiment, unspoken competition and unexpected solidarity.

Warm, dry, and occasionally funny - this short novel is perfect company for a long weekend or your next train ride.

For anyone who has ever stood in a Tai Chi class and wondered what everyone else is really thinking.
