THE STRIKE

A book launch with Harvey Thomlinson,

moderated by Jeremiah Jenne

Tuesday, March 13, 6 pm | 60 RMB

Harvey Thomlinson will present his novel The Strike about an illegal protest in a frozen border town. Harvey will share his experience of living undercover on a factory estate in northeast China during the real-life strike that inspired the book, and talk about the limits of literary realism and the experimental language used in the book. The Strike explores a crisis in the lives of Old Yu and Little Xu, two outcasts caught up in the trouble which explodes over the sale of the local electricity plant. Harvey is also known as a translator and publisher of fiction by Chinese writers like Murong Xuecun and Chen Xiwo. He will discuss the current publishing environment and running his Hong Kong press, Make-Do Publishing.
