What Chinese books are popular among foreigners? I love reading books. Recently I bought an e-reader and feel very convenient using it to read whenever and wherever possible. Today I suddenly realized that except for several science fiction novels, most of my books in e-reader are not Chinese books, I mean, not written by Chinese authors. That's interesting. Now there're so many foreign books popular among Chinese people, especially books about management, making money and children education. I wonder what Chinese books are popular among foreigners? Is there anyone who want to share with me?

Which Chinese books are popular among foreigners?

I love reading books. Recently I bought an e-reader and feel (that) it is very convenient to use for reading whenever and wherever possible. Today, I suddenly realized that, except for several science fiction novels, most of the boooks in my e-reader are not Chinese books; I mean, not written by Chinese authors. That's interesting. Now there're so many foreign books which are popular with Chinese people, especially books about management, making money and children's education. I wonder which Chinese books are popular with foreigners? Is there anyone who wants to share with me?

Hmm, in my experience, you don't seem to see many books (in English) by Chinese writers here in the UK.  I enjoy occasionally reading Yu Hua, and one or two ex-pat Chinese authors, such as Jung Chang and Adeline Yen Mah.

"Wild Swans" is quite popular. It is about the history of china in the 20th century and follows the life of the authors grandmother and mother.
