Can anyone recommend me any Chinese authors who write fiction in English? It seems that the most
famous are Amy Tan and Ha Jin. I want to know if there are other good writers. I remember seeing a
book by Liu Hong. Has anyone read her books?

Here are some that I've enjoyed reading. David Wong Louie and Samantha Chang are both
Chinese-Americans, I believe. Ying Chen is a emigree from mainland China to Canada, and she writes
in French.

Lin Yutang wrote fiction and sanwen.
Jung Chang (Zhang Rong) has written two famous books, although neither are fiction.
If you count Chinese Americans like Amy Tan, there are tons more. I'd try wikipedia for some lists.
Other languages:
Dai Sijie writes in French; Gao Xingjian is in France but I don't know if he actually writes in
French.
Holland has Lulu Wang and Yuhong Gong (Gong Yuhong) who write in Dutch.

Xiaolu Guo has written a book in English (Concise Chinese-English Dictionary for Lovers), as has
Geling Yan (The Uninvited/Banquet Bug (Same book-different titles)).
Yiyun Li's first collection of short stories (A Thousand Years of Good Prayers) was written in
English and she is writing her first full length novel in English which is due to be published
this summer. All are worth reading.
I read one book by Liu Hong but didn't like it too much.
There's also Anchee Min.

There's a Li Yunyi short story on the New Yorker's site currently - I really enjoyed it, am about
to what else of her work I can find . . .
Edit: Just spent money on A Thousand Years of Good Prayers - that's how much I liked the story . .
