Listen to the poetry of Zhai Yongming and Wang Ying in a bilingual reading with their translator.  Zhai’s poetry is renowned for its powerful imagery, forthright voice and criticism of traditional cultural attitudes towards women. Shanghai poet Wang Ying’s poetry is an expression, through vividly physical and tactile imagery, of states of mind.  In addition to Zhai and Wang, Andrea Lingenfelter has translated several works of poetry and fiction, including Mian Mian’s Candy, Farewell My Concubine, and is working on a translation of Annie Baobei’s Lianhua (Padma).
