“Migrant workers – or New Workers, as some of them prefer to be called – leave their rural hometowns in search of employment and better prospects in urban areas. Many of them have ‘left behind children’ or long-distance spouses. In their host cities, they live without residence status.”
For @grantamag.bsky.social , I wrote about a migrant worker’s colony outside Beijing, the heart of China’s new working class literature, and wanting more from life than its daily grind. granta.com/picun/

The image of Chinese doctoral supervisors in Western academia is riddled with stereotypes. I analyse 450 Zhihu comments & derive 3 images : (1) ambitious and supportive, (2) sneaky and exploitative, and (3) colonised. Read my critical analysis:
