ST Riley's China Encounters

The characters encountered in these pages chronicle the China the world confronts today. The stories arrive in the form of oral histories and narratives and are rooted in the “guerrilla journalism” of Louis “Studs” Terkel, the 20th century American author who used an enthusiastic yet gentle interviewing style to elicit, in rich detail, the experiences and thoughts of citizens about the state of America and its world. The writings here seek to do the same for China.
