About

 

Literature has profoundly influenced the life of acclaimed writer Xue Mo, who journeyed from a small village in western China to the wider world, empowered by the force of literature.

In this upcoming event, Xue Mo will be joined by distinguished guests including Claudia Kaiser, Vice President of Business Development for Asia/Africa/Arab World at the Frankfurt Book Fair. She is also the chief director of the Frankfurter Buchmesse's Beijing office and now oversees markets in Jakarta; Paolo Marcenaro, a trilingual translator who recently translated “Curses of the Kingdom of Xixia” and “The World Is A Reflection of the Mind”, as well as being a senior editor, web journalist, blogger, and lecturer in Italy; and Dr. Marc Hermann, a renowned German translator. They will gather to discuss "Wild Fox Ridge", a captivating novel filled with suspense, mystery, and folk tales. The discussion will provide insights into mysterious China, lesser-known western regions and Xue Mo’s unique literary world.

Join us in exploring the the power of literature and enjoy the feast of literature.
