Jeffrey Wasserstrom and I co-edit China-related book reviews and content for the Los Angeles Review of Books. Since LARB does not have a dedicated “China” section, there is no systematic way to keep up with LARB’s China-related reviews unless you happen to catch them when they come out. So, I decided to collect all reviews in a regularly-updated database here. I also recommend checking out China Books Review or Asian Review of Books.
These are only LARB reviews that Jeff and I have commissioned or edited.
❗IMPORTANT NOTE: It is better NOT to click “Open” in the Title cell—clicking on the URL will take you directly to the review.
