520 8  The world is anything but unfamiliar with diaspora: Jewish,
       African, Armenian, Roma-Gipsy, Filipino/a, Tamil, Irish or
       Italian, even Japanese. But few have carried so global a 
       resonance as that of China. What, then, of literary-
       cultural expression, the huge body of fiction which has 
       addressed itself to that plurality of lives and 
       geographies and which has come to be known as?After 
       China?? This collection of essays offers bearings on those
       written in English, and in which both memory and story are
       central, spanning the USA to Australia, Canada to the UK, 
       Hong Kong to Singapore, with yet others of more 
       transnational nature. This collection open with a reprise 
       of woman-authored Chinese American fiction using Maxine 
       Hong Kingston and Amy Tan as departure points. In turn 
       follow readings of the oeuvres of Tan and Frank Chin. A 
       comparative essay takes up novels by Canadian, American 
       and Australian authors from the perspective of migrancy as
       fracture. Chinese Canada comes into view in accounts of 
       SKY Lee, Wayson Choy, Evelyn Lau and Larissa Lai. 
       Australia under Chinese literary auspices is given a 
       comparative mapping through the fiction of Brian Castro 
       and Ouyang Yu. The English language?China fiction? of 
       Singapore and Hong Kong is located in essays centred, 
       respectively, on Martin Booth and Po Wah Lam, and Hwee 
       Hwee Tan and Colin Cheong. The collection rounds out with 
       portraits of Timothy Mo as British transnational author, a
       selection of contextual Chinese British stories and art, 
       and the phenomenon of?Chinese Chick Lit? novels. China 
       Fictions/English Language will be of interest to readers 
       drawn both to?After China? as diasporic literary heritage 
       and comparative literature in general.
