Hi, I live in Bangkok but write a lot on China. I lived in Hong Kong for 17 years and specialize in fiction on that period including novels, play and musical. My humorous travel book through China is in the stores and now up on Kindle, etc., as well: DON QUIXOTE IN CHINA: THE SEARCH FOR PEACH BLOSSOM SPRING. One late night while reading T'ao Ch'ien's Peach Blossom Spring I decided I had found clues in the poem and to where the real one is and so off I went into the mountains of Hunan and Jiangsi in search of it. Perhaps I should not have had quite so many black russians and wild turkey on the rocks when finding those clues. Love Popup Chinese newspaper reading. It helps a great deal. Cheers! Dean
