Dimitris Sotakis: also ’if you liked’ that amazing Chinese writer whose name refuses to come to mind. The harder I try to recall, the less I can. There was a story with a twist about one leaf clinging to a tree outside a dying woman's window. I remember a man feeling like a kangaroo going downstairs. I tried NoAI-DuckDuckGoing ’Contemporary Chinese short stories Lady Writer kangaroo stairs leaf tree I liked it'. Oddly, no luck. Finally I regret that I no longer shelve my books by author country.
