Autorenporträt

Xi Xi, pseudonym of Cheung Yin, was born in Shanghai in 1938, and moved to Hong Kong with her family in 1950. In 1957, she studied at the Grantham College of Education, graduating to become a teacher at a government primary school. Increasingly she concentrated on her career as a writer, and her fiction and poetry won her many literary prizes, including the 1983 United Daily Award in Taiwan for her short story 'A Girl Like Me', and the 2018 Newman Prize for Chinese literature at the University of Oklahoma. In recent years, she has become very fond of making her own rag dolls and teddy bears. John Minford is Emeritus Professor of Chinese at The Australian National University and Sin Wai Kin Professor of Chinese Culture and Translation at the Hang Seng University of Hong Kong. Christina Sanderson is a PhD Candidate at the Australian National University, working on the nineteenth-century memoir Tracks in the Snow, by the Manchu official Wanyan Linqing.
