 |

Had recently read "The Fat Years", a novel written by a Chinese author by the name of CHAN Koonchung. If you are interested in contemporary China, I sincerely recommend that you should read this book.
Pleased to know that the said book is included as one of Allan Massie's (The Spectator Magazine) books of the year vide: http://www.spectator.co.uk/books/blog/7500508/allan-massies-books-of-t he-year.thtml .
Hope the above is of interest to readers in this Forum. |

'The Flowers of War', a novel written by Geling YAN, is now available (in hard-cover) in the bookshops.
Heard an interview of Geling Yan about her book on BBC World Service recently, and thought it might be of interest to readers in this Forum. Log onto:

Happy listening. |

Congratulations to Kyung-sook SHIN for winning 'The Man Asian Literary Prize' for her novel, "Please Look After My Mom", and becoming the first woman writer to do so. For more details, see this CNN's report: http://edition.cnn.com/2012/03/16/world/asia/prize-man/ .
Had read the novel which is a best-seller in South Korea, and would highly recommend readers in this Forum to read it. |
