skylee Posted August 31, 2006 at 11:40 PM Report Share Posted August 31, 2006 at 11:40 PM It is strange that most of these popular writers, except 賈平凹 and 余秋雨, have been popular since I was a kid. I enjoy reading 金庸 (1), 余秋雨 (9) and 曹雪芹 (10). And I finished reading all the books written by 瓊瑤 (4) when I was a teenager and have never wanted to read them again since.

Ian_Lee Posted September 1, 2006 at 12:26 AM Author Report Share Posted September 1, 2006 at 12:26 AM Skylee: I haven't read anything contemporary. Any good recommendation for me on writings of 賈平凹 and 余秋雨? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skylee Posted September 2, 2006 at 11:03 AM Report Share Posted September 2, 2006 at 11:03 AM Start with 山居筆記, then 行者無疆, then 千年一嘆, then 文化苦旅. Decide if you like him or not after these. (He is a big target for different kinds of criticism, like this.) I don't think I've read any of 賈平凹's works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wushijiao Posted September 2, 2006 at 03:57 PM Report Share Posted September 2, 2006 at 03:57 PM How did Xinhua come up with these authors? These authors all seem very weighty and important, but what the top ten 'best sellers" list would look like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
