Contemporary Chinese Literature since 2012 (Mo Yan Nobel Prize)
What do you think, in your opinion, is the greatest novel/novelist of present day China since Mo Yan won the Nobel Prize and brought attention to this emergent literature of geniuses that live in his commercial shadow now like Ma Jian and others. More young or old, what are the greatest writers and books coming out of China in the past 7 years or so. And that are translated to english or spanish. Like Liu Cixin or A Yi and so on. Thanks!
