Drama x Fiction 戲劇與小說

Chinese-Canadian author Xue Yiwei’s 2014 novel The Empty Nest is one of the most influential Chinese novels of recent years and considered by many critics to be more drama than fiction. Today he explores the intersection between theatre and fiction with Chinese playwright, director, and short story writer Chen Si’an. Moderated by Australian translator, essayist, novelist and sinologist, Linda Jaivin. In MANDARIN, and available 24 hours later with ENGLISH subtitles. Click here to watch for FREE.
