Author: Xia JiaTranslated by Neil Clarke
In 2014, a Kickstarter campaign was launched by Clarkesworld Magazine to help fund ongoing translation of Chinese sci-fi authors, with a new story added every issue. The campaign was an overwhelming success, and since its inception, over 40 stories have been translated and published.
Fast forward to 2019, and Clarkesworld Books has been introduced as a translation-focused branch of Wyrm Publishing (the magazine’s publisher) with their first project being the debut English book of Xia Jia titled “A Summer Beyond Your Reach”, which is a series of short stories by the author, an Associate Professor of Chinese Literature and speculative fiction giant. She is a multiple Galaxy Award winner (China’s Sci Fi award) and has published numerous short story collections. After a successful Kickstarter campaign, this book is set to release end of 2019.
