Mo Yan is a hard act to follow
Comment on "Looking for the next Mo Yan" (China Daily, Sept 10)
One day in a library in the United Kingdom, I found it hard to find a book to read, and then I discovered Mo Yan. I have been reading Chinese literature translated into English for at least 14 years. But maybe 75 percent of the Chinese authors I read are sadly unknown in the United Kingdom.
Finding them to be different to Western books and stories, I have read them all with relish.
