Recipient of Publication Award in Literary and Fiction at the Hong Kong Publishing Biennial Awards 2021
The story of Zhong Shuhe (1931– ), one of the most prominent editor of China, is a quixotic one in the modern history of Chinese publishing. After being re-educated through labor and spent nine years in jail during the Cultural Revolution, Zhong started his editing career at his late forties.

In this remarkable biography Peng and Wang bring their masterful skills to chronicling Zhong’s life struggles, his marriage and friendship, and the stories behind his publishing career. The result is an extraordinary and complex portrait of a man and the era in which he lived.
