Described by Ian McEwan as ‘a stupendous novel’, Cocoon reveals much about the unshakable power of friendship and the existence of hope. Zhang Yueran is a fresh voice representing a new generation of important young writers from China, shedding a different light on the country’s recent past. She will discuss her recent novel with Jeremy Tiang, whose English translation was published in 2022 by World Editions.
