On 12 December 2016, Read Paper Republic hosted an evening of speed-book clubbing at Free Word Centre on contemporary fantasy fiction from China. We asked people to read the short stories before the event, and come along to share their thoughts and questions with translators.

Featuring translators Nicky Harman, Dave Haysom, Emily Jones and Helen Wang.

Wanderlust: Great Literature from Around the World is a monthly event series at Free Word.
