Mu Xin (1927-2011)

       I haven't seen a proper obituary yet, but Chinese author Mu Xin (木心; actually 孙璞) has passed away; see, for example, Mourning Mr. Mu Xin at Beijing Shots.
       New Directions recently brought out the interesting small collection, An Empty Room; see the New Directions publicity page, or get your copy from Amazon.com or Amazon.co.uk; see also, for example, the review at The Asian Review of Books.
