Chinese authors in translation: recomendations?

Question

I spent a few months in Hong Kong and now I am reading Chinese literature that has been translated into English. I've read writers like Mo Yan, Lao She, and several others, I've even subsscribe to a magazine that prints translated stories. Any recommendations?

Answer 1

Lillian Lee is an excellent Hong Kong author (she wrote the novel "Farewell My Concubine".

I also enjoyed Su Tong's "My Life as Emperor" and anything by Ha Jin (although he actually writes in English so no need to translate)!
