Asia Literary Review - Opening the Festival
The Hong Kong International Literary Festival is opening with the launch of the new edition of the Asian Literary Review. A great publication and worth supporting - not least as I have a piece about the pirates of the South China Sea in the new edition!
The blurb runs - Come mingle with visiting writers, publishers and other literature enthusiasts. The festival issue of Asia Literary Review will be launched. Asia Literary Review is an exciting new English language quarterly devoted to fiction, reportage, documentary photography, travel writing and memoir addressing the needs of intelligent readers. Every quarterly issue contains the work of celebrated and established writers as well as new voices from Mumbai to Shanghai.

As someone who divides their time pretty evenly writing about China now and China back then this seemed like a place to throw all the interesting bits that fall through the cracks somehow and never get used anywhere else.
It's basically the stuff that doesn't get used in my writing about modern China or in the books I do about old China - i.e. probably of little interest to anyone but me and therefore ideally suited to an obscure blog up a dark cul-de-sac of the Internet.
