About this product
Product Information
Fan Xiaoqing's writing evokes the Chinese countryside, not simply playing on a saccharine sense of nostalgia, but juxtaposing contemporary urban life with contemporary rural life in ways that offer insight into the transitions-- and even dislocations--central to Chinese life today. Fan's keen sense of observation gives depth of insight into each story, but also leaves space for the reader to interact with the scenes and situations presented. These stories resonate with the people of China, depicting places, people, and feelings that are both familiar and honest. This collection gathers some of Fan's most enduring stories, translated into English by some of the most renown literary translators working today, in hopes that these stories can open a window onto Chinese life for foreign readers.

Item as described, good price, well packaged, arrived slightly later than hoped (not in time for Christmas ) but the order was placed in a very busy shipping period. No issue with the seller’s speed of response and sending the item. Great seller!

Great seller with great communication! Item arrived complete, as described and for a good price. There was a bit of an issue with tracking the order at one point (not the seller's fault), but seller was proactive in reaching out to the carrier and myself to get everything back on track. Arrived when expected.

Quality and hard to find book that won't be released 'til January 2025 in the U.S.A.
Fantastic price.
Book was in a secure and protective package. Arrived a few days after I placed order and that was faster than I expected.
Seller is a fantastic communicator and proactive in regards to tracking status. I'd definitely buy from them in the future.
