Zhang Yueran was in Gent! Ze sprak in de schouwburg over haar boek Huize Zwaan en Chinese literatuur in het buitenland. In de bioscoop een vertoning van de film "Unseen Sister", naar een novelle van haar, waarna ze sprak over de verschillen tussen boek en film en het voormalige Chinese eenkindbeleid. Haar boeken liggen in hoge stapels in elke boekwinkel. En we zijn ook nog wezen lunchen, maar daar is geen foto van.
