We are, at long last, updating the database. No, stop sniggering, I'm being serious. We've got new bio information for a number of writers, new books up and a seriously broader range of samples.

Recently posted were samples from Jia Pingwa's newest book Old Kiln, Han Shaogong's famous novella Da-Da-Da, Chi Zijian's award-winning novel Snow and Raven and Ren Xiaowen's Them. On the way are pieces from Ge Fei, Hong Ying, A Yi and others. Check 'em out all together on the Translation Samples page.
