I'm interested in exploring more contemporary Chinese literature, but I'm not sure where to start. I'd like to move beyond the classic epics and find some powerful modern voices.
I've heard great things about authors like Yan Lianke and Yu Hua, but I'd love personal recommendations. I'm open to any genre: literary fiction, family sagas, or even speculative fiction, as long as it gives a compelling and authentic window into modern life or recent history.
What's one book by a Chinese author from the last 30 years that really impacted you?
