Top-selling poetry in 2006Posted by Joel Martinsen, January 2, 2007 3:51 PM
Top-selling poetry in 2006
From Kafka Books, an online store specializing in poetry, here are last year's top sellers in the categories of Chinese-language poetry, translated poetry, and criticism. I. Top 15 Chinese-language individual poetry collections
Information and translations for most of the unlinked (as well as for many of those that are) can be found in PDF form via Michael Martin Day's anthology on the Digital Archive for Chinese Studies. There seems to be no information in English on Zhu Zhu or Sun Lei (aside from a single mention by Zhao Lihua) - any suggestions? II. Top 10 collections of translated poetry
III. Top 10 general titles in poetry
Note: Since these rankings come from a single store, they should not be considered representative of the entire Chinese poetry market. Links and Sources
