Diamond Hill by Feng Chi-shun: Feng's memoir Diamond Hill describes an era of gambling and gangsters, Suzie Wong and squatter villages, fires and food stalls, and the Kowloon Walled City and its white powder. "A time when people were poor, but life was rich," he says. The world that he grew up in no longer exists, but his book - the first ever on the Diamond Hill refugee settlement, in either Chinese or English - offers a candid picture of what life was like for most Hong Kong residents in the 1950s.

Yup, the Beijing News has scored a fictional interview with "I, Asimov". They've been taking similar liberties recently in their entertainment sections, captioning photographs of celebrities with made-up quotes.

Comments on Zhang Yu: Open and hidden shamelessness
Your choice of excerpts is interesting. Based on your selections, I suspect my take on this issue is somewhat different from yours. I might be wrong.
Since Mike isn't here to shill for my blog, it has become incumbent on me to do so myself - hopefully you just might find it interesting (and thanks for the previous plug, Mike - I really do appreciate it). Here is the link for my contribution on this topic:

您对男人的看法真可惜。有坏的,友好的。就像女人。
我见过面很多女孩儿为了达到他们的目标要用情感。我真讨厌,好像她们一位男人没有脑子、精神。
