About the author

Sun Fengming is a Chinese translator who mainly works on Chinese translations of Japanese literature. Public information about him is limited, and his translation work is concentrated on foreign nonfiction and literary works. He has translated Osamu Dazai's No Longer Human: A Japanese-Chinese Bilingual Illustrated Edition (Dolphin Books, 2020), as well as Shinji Fukuda's Fabrication: The Truth Behind the Fukuoka "Killer Teacher" Incident, and Takagi Toru's War Advertising Agent and The Destruction of the Bamiyan Buddhas, among other titles in the "Translation Documentary" series published by Shanghai Translation Publishing House. These translations cover foreign literature, social culture, and documentary writing, with subjects often involving Japanese social incidents and public issues. The translations strive to stay close to the original narrative style and offer Chinese readers a reference for understanding contemporary Japanese documentary writing.
