10/25/2010 7:00 pm
The second New Yorker "20 Under 40" writer to read here this month, following Dinaw Mengestu on the 18th, Yiyun Li is here from her Oakland home with an amazing new book of stories, Gold Boy, Emerald Girl (Random House). "A stellar assortment of stories ... further proof that Li deserves to be considered among the best living fiction writers." - Kirkus Reviews. "In the most dismal circumstances and with the most unlikely subjects, Yiyun Li has the rare ability to conjure hope. She writes with precision and delicacy about the Chinese diaspora and about the new China, and in doing so she writes about us all." - Mona Simpson. Yiyun Li's other books are the novel, The Vagrants, and a first book of stories, A Thousand Years of Good Prayers. She has also received the PEN/Hemingway Award, the Guardian First Book Award, and the Frank O'Connor International Short Story Award.
