Breaking onto the European cultural stage is not easy. Chao Shu-hsia had to struggle hard by herself and her books came out one by one. The most recent, Sai Chin Hua, is dealing with an issue involving both China and Germany and will therefore be read with even more interest. It is to be translated into both English and German.
打入歐洲文壇成果得之不易，趙淑俠時有孤軍奮戰的吃力，好在新書接二連三地順利問世，近作「賽金花」故事涉及八國聯軍時中德之間的一段公案，更是相當被看好，將分別譯為英文和德文出版。
