Life
[edit]Zhao Haihong was born in Hangzhou in 1977 and graduated from the foreign languages department of Zhejiang University. She currently teaches Anglo-American literature at Zhejiang Gongshang University.[1]
Work
[edit]Zhao already started in high school to write her first short stories. Apart from science fiction, she has also published a number of martial arts stories.[2] For her science fiction stories, Zhao has received the Chinese Galaxy Award several times[3] and her fans awarded her the unofficial title of "princess of Chinese science fiction."[2] Zhao herself, however, stated that she found the labeling of "princess" problematic.[4] Han Song proclaimed to be a fan of hers and praised her vivid literary style and her lifelike characters which he believes to be hardly matched in Chinese or international science fiction.[5]
