Please join us for session 7 of the Modern Chinese Literature Online Book Club. All are welcome to attend and you do not need to have attended any of our prior book club sessions. The session is informal, friendly and held in English on MS Teams.
In this session with Paper Republic, we will be discussing Mister Lover by Wang Xiaobo and translated by Eric Abrahemsen. This story is one of a collection of “Tales of the Tang” by Wang Xiaobo: stories ostensibly set in the Tang Dynasty, but peppered through with suspiciously modern elements. We are delighted that two translators familiar with Wang Xiaobo's work will be joining us for the session, Jason Sommer and Zhang Hongling.
