Ideal for readers interested in contemporary Chinese literature and poetry, as well as those fascinated by cultural reflections and artistic expressions from Shanghai’s literary scene.

Book Hero thinking about your next read

Succinct and reticent, Lu Piao, also as part of his pen-name, Piao (drifting, fluttering or floating), suggests, is a drifty kind of a poet, skipping over the wavelets of poetry, formed in tightly knit words or expressions, dipping into the life experiences of the poet while trying to bury them in an attempt to conceal them.
