Featured Authors
Stephen L. Koss
His book on Hangzhou, By the Hills Embraced, is inspired by a poem praising Hangzhou by Bai Juyi, a famous poet from the Tang Dynasty (618-907).
The book records the history and culture of Hangzhou and its satellite cities from ancient to modern times. Neither a personal experience nor a travel guide, it also includes, according to Stephen, “the stories of individual persons – some renowned, others perhaps little known – each of whom contributed in some way to significant events or the development and evolution of local culture and whose work and lives, whether remembered, little known or forgotten, are celebrated by the millions of Chinese people who visit Hangzhou and the West Lake every year.”
Stephen L. Koss is also the author of Beautiful Su: A Social and Cultural History of Suzhou, China.
Fan Jinshi
Fan Jinshi is a distinguished archaeologist who has devoted her life to safeguarding and researching the Mogao Caves, an esteemed UNESCO Heritage site nestled in Dunhuang, Gansu Province, China, and considered one of the world’s greatest archaeological discoveries. Her contributions have not only safeguarded the invaluable treasures of Dunhuang but has also facilitated international collaboration in the field of Dunhuang Studies.
Daughter of Dunhuang: A Memoir of a Mogao Grottoes Researcher is her testament to a lifetime of dedication and passion.
Karen Ma
Karen Ma is the author of a novel and two non-fiction books, including the upcoming China's Millennial Digital Generation and The Modern Madame Butterfly.
China Books proudly published her recent book China's Millennial Digital Generation. The book focuses on the impact new technology has had on China’s post-1980s indie film directors from mostly grassroots backgrounds. Armed with video cameras, cellphones and the internet, these young artists are able to find their voice and tell us what's really happening in rural China through their auteur creations.
