About the author

Feng Zhen is an author about whom little public information is available. It is currently known that five of this author's works are included in the Chinese book database, commonly classified under foreign literature. Judging from the works in the database, Feng Zhen is closely associated with the translation and introduction of Nabokov's works. Representative titles include the Nabokov Selected Works II (five-volume set), the Complete Short Stories of Nabokov, and The Defense. These works center on Nabokov's novels and short fiction and involve literary translation and editorial work, presenting classics of foreign literature to Chinese readers. Because details such as dates of birth and death, nationality, education, and professional experience cannot be confirmed, it is difficult to describe Feng Zhen's writing style or personal background in detail. Based on the listed titles, however, the focus of Feng Zhen's work lies in the translation and dissemination of foreign literature, especially Nabokov's works, offering readable texts through which Chinese readers can come to know this Russian-American writer.
