Strange Beasts Of China by Yan Ge
In the city of Yong’an, a former cryptozoology student turned writer is tasked with documenting the lives of elusive “beasts,” and her investigations entwine with the city’s myths and her own uncertain past. Each encounter blurs the line between human and creature, revealing stories of longing, memory, and belonging as she uncovers secrets about the origins of the beasts and herself. The result is a melancholic, fantastical portrait of identity, love, and the unseen forces that shape a community.
