Introduction
21 Chinese short stories written in the 1990s were selected - a tiny portion of the literary output during that decade. Although a Chinese proverb warns "If you focus on one detail, you may miss ten thousand others," one of these details can speak volumes for busy people looking for an insight into China. The prime selection criterion was that the stories be compelling. And the writers are most active in China's literary scene today.
