Xu Xi in China Daily

“People often ask why I write in English, and I finally just decided, ‘I guess this is just the language I use’,” she said. “But I keep trying to put Chinese into my English, and that’s something that I try to do and think about quite a lot.”

The above is from an article on Xu Xi in China Daily today. Read the full article here (US Edition here).

Cha is in The China Daily

Back in August (Sunday 29th August), I was contacted by China Daily. Today, finally, there is an article on Cha in the paper [Link]. China Daily is the only official English-language national newspaper in China. The article also appears in their US Edition.

Unfortunately, they made one typo which completely changed the meaning of one of my quotes. The quote reads: “I am sure that we will see more books from mainland writers written in English” but it should have been: “I am NOT sure that we will see more books from mainland writers written in English”. Please also note that the cover image appearing in the article is by Alvin Pang. 
The article mainly focuses on our forthcoming “China Issue”, due out in June 2011. (See the Call for Submissions.) We hope many of you will submit works to the edition.
