Chinese literature has gotten considerable attention in the past year. In October, Gao Xingjian, a Chinese writer living in France, was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature. This not only ended a century-long prize drought for Chinese letters, it also made clear the importance of translation.
這是華人文學引人注目的一年，今年十月，旅法華裔作家高行健獲頒諾貝爾文學獎，不僅打破百年來華文創作未能得獎的孤寂，同時也凸顯了作品翻譯的重要性。
