Description
Writing has always been a difficult subject to talk about, let alone writing an honest account about how one's creative process is complicated by global lockdown and personal hardships.
In Writing in Difficult Times, eleven young promising writers from Hong Kong wallow in some of their perhaps most confusing and troubling moments in life, and share their struggles.
How do writers committed to crafted language maintain a dialogue with themselves?
How does the dense urban living space affect creative outputs and thoughts?
How do writers reflect on and evaluate gender roles, motherhood, and time?
What roles does memory play in writing, if memory's own language is not allowed to communicate?
Each personal essay in this collection is available in both Chinese and English, hoping to build a timely and genuine connection with its readers, regardless of location and cultural background.
Each word is a courageous sharing that makes a significant contribution to bilingual Hong Kong literary writings today.
