The main stage of the China Pavilion at this year's London Book Fair was crowded on Wednesday morning as the Chinese edition of a biography about a young British man was launched.
Blades of Grass — The Story of George Aylwin Hogg, which was written in English by Hogg's nephew, Mark Aylwin Thomas, was translated by Li Linxi, a lecturer at the Communication University of China in Beijing and published by Renmin Publishing House.
"The book title refers to his epitaph: Through his being and working, many blades of grass will grow where none grew before," Thomas explained.
