The famous Chinese blogger and writer, Han Han (韩寒)

Just a short post because I haven't read enough info about him. At age 27, he is the most talked-about author of the times, apparently. I have seen his name popping up several times in the Chinese blogosphere but didn't bother to check him out. Just reading his bio on Wiki is enough to get me interested in reading his novels and essays. A high school dropout turned famous writer and professional rally racer. It's not a story you hear frequently in PRC these days. Quite a contrast from No Country for Young Man, as Han Han is also part of the post-80's generation (the first generation that China's One Child Policy took effect).

[edit] I went ahead and read some of his blog posts. This guy has such biting wit. I like him. And his attitude towards the Chinese education system in general, is pretty similar to what was said in NCFYM. A post-80's generation indeed.
