Biography

Ah Cheng, a Chinese writer and painter, was the son of film critic Zhong Dianfei, who was compelled by the Communist government to sell his collection of Chinese and Western classics. Ah Cheng secretly read these books before handing them over to the bookseller. During the Cultural Revolution, he was assigned to work on commune farms in Shanxi, Inner Mongolia, and Yunnan. After returning to Beijing in the late 1970s, he gained acclaim for his drawings, stories, essays, and film scripts. In the mid-1980s, he became a leading figure in the "seeking roots" literary movement, where young writers aimed to reconnect with their cultural heritage lost amid two decades of social turmoil. He is best known for his series of "king" novellas.
