Rickshaw Boy

Pearl S. Buck did not translate the novel Rickshaw Boy: according to Richard Jean So in the linked resource, she commissioned the translation. It was translated by Evan King (Lao She hated the translation and it was a major part of his eventual distaste for the US). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.84.125.21 (talk) 16:14, 17 September 2023 (UTC)

It troubles me that "Cat Country" is not mentioned in this article given Chinese government attempts to suppress it: http://www.foreignpolicy.com/articles/2010/07/30/china_2013?page=0,1 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.178.157.211 (talk) 23:01, 3 August 2010 (UTC)
