About the author

Yang Haotian is a young translator and a member of the Translators Association of China. He graduated from the Graduate Institute of Interpretation and Translation at Shanghai International Studies University. Public information about him is limited, and few details of his life are available; his known work centers on the translation of foreign literature. His translations cover classic novels, short-story collections, and collections of myths, including Pride and Prejudice, Treasure Island, Selected Short Stories of O. Henry, Uncle Tom's Cabin, Norse Mythology, and Egyptian Mythology. Six of his works are included in the library. Most of these translations fall under foreign literature and quality fiction and are intended for general readers; they aim for accuracy and fluency and have had some influence in bringing English classics and myths to Chinese readers.
