This is such a beautiful book! There are not many books that capture the old and new of Hong Kong, but leave it to Blacksmith Books to publish them! My review of Andreas von Buddenbrock’s lovely new book, The Ink Trail Hong Kong, in Cha: An Asian Literary Journal!

In her review of Yan Ge's 𝐸𝑙𝑠𝑒𝑤ℎ𝑒𝑟𝑒: 𝑆𝑡𝑜𝑟𝑖𝑒𝑠 for Cha: An Asian Literary Journal, X. H. Collins asks: "Would she evoke my nostalgia for Chengdu? Would she take me on a journey to a place unknown to me? What was her “here”, if she wrote about “elsewhere?”" chajournal.blog/2024/05/26/els…

My review of Yan Ge's first English collection -love it!

I am so honored to have reviewed “Shanghailanders” for Asian Review of Books. It’s a gripping family saga that begins 15 years into the future and ends a decade ago.
