Northern Girls: Life Goes On
By Sheng Keyi, Penguin
Born in the 1970s, Sheng Keyi is a strong female writer. Beijing Normal University literary critic Zhang Ning says her works are like a sharp scream from commercial society.
It is Sheng's first novel that has been translated into English and has received reviews in leading Western media. It tells the story of a frivolous rural girl's confrontation with the big cities from the 1990s to 2000s.
