SACU Reading Group on May Fourth Writers and their writing – Monthly Discussion Meeting
April 13, 2022 @ 6:00 pm - 7:30 pm

We will continue to discuss the writings of Ding Ling 丁玲 based on two short stories, “Shanghai, Spring 1930 – Part 2” and “When I was in Xia Village” (1940) at our next group meeting.
Ding Ling made the transition from writing about self-indulgent bourgeois women to one who observed at close hand the life of working people, particularly the peasants in the countryside. She became a feminist writer within the ranks of the communist community in Yan’an and an influential literary figure throughout her life.
New participants to the group are welcome!
