\nThis May, China Institute has partnered with the Beijing Contemporary Art Foundation to bring some of China\u2019s best-selling and most beloved writers to New York. Please join us on Tuesday, May 10, 2016, for a conversation between Yu Hua, one of China\u2019s best-known novelists, and Xudong Zhang, Director of NYU China House. Together they will delve into the mimetic impulse in Yu Hua\u2019s fiction, exploring the realist dimension of this writer who has been studied primarily under the rubric of modernism, experimentation, and the avant-garde.<\/p>\n

Yu Hua is the author of five novels, six story collections, and three essay collections, including To Live, Brothers, and China in Ten Words. He is a Contributing Op-Ed Writer for the New York Times and his work has been translated into more than twenty languages. He is the recipient of many awards, including the James Joyce Award, France\u2019s Prix Courrier International, and Italy\u2019s Premio Grinzane Cavour. Yu Hua lives in Beijing.<\/p>\n

Xudong Zhang is a Professor of Chinese and Comparative Literature at NYU. He is the Director of NYU China House, where he is an expert on modern Chinese Literature and Culture.<\/p>\n
