Six beautiful hardbacks

译

verb

Pinyin – yì

Definition – to translate; to interpret; to decode; to decipher

Traditionally, readers seeking out translated editions of Chinese fiction were faced with few options. Either they were limited to mass-produced titles, and therefore books that were of dubious quality in terms of both printing and translation, or, if a title was published by one of the major publishers, they were professionally packaged but nevertheless did little to broaden understanding of both China and Chinese literature.

Future of Chinese literature in translation

No more mass-produced titles getting lost in translation. Every year, we publish a selection of titles that we really believe in.

We go beyond a narrow understanding of Chinese culture, publishing nuanced narratives representing different perspectives.

We have our finger on the pulse of the Chinese literary scene, publishing only the very best Chinese authors.
