About the author

Xiong Yipei is an author about whom little public information is available. Her interests appear to center on world history and military affairs, and she has worked on translating related foreign-language works. Three of her translations have been published: Say Nothing: A True Story of Murder in Northern Ireland, Pure Suffering: Soldiers in World War II, and Hidden: A Spanish Man's Thirty-Three-Year Civil War Life. These works span the Northern Ireland conflict, the experiences of soldiers in World War II, and individual fates in the Spanish Civil War, all belonging to non-fiction writing set against historical events. Judging from her visible translation output, Xiong tends to choose subjects in which specific cases carry the weight of larger history, presenting the experiences of ordinary people amid war and political upheaval while emphasizing narrative authenticity and readability, thus offering Chinese readers a reference for understanding the relevant history.
