I wrote a short piece about the re-issue of Julien Gracq’s novel for the TLS.

I wrote about Ben Bland’s book on activism and identity in Hong Kong for the Financial Times.

I wrote about extinction for the LRB Blog. Spare a thought for the thylacine.

The LARB has a new China blog which has lots of good content by people who really know their stuff. I wrote something for a roundtable discussion on Han Song’s story ‘Finished’, a Kafka-esque story about migrant workers.

I wrote a piece for 3 a.m. magazine about Magda Szabó.

I wrote about Cambridge University Press’s decision to censor some of its content in China for the London Review of Books Blog.

Looking forward to reading from The Casualties in Stockholm next week. Event details here.
