Patricia Castro Obando, a renowned Peruvian journalist and sinologist, has dedicated nearly two decades to deepening Peruvians' understanding of the Chinese mainland. Having lived, studied, and worked in China from 2003 until last year, Castro Obando has amassed a wealth of knowledge and experience.
Now, she channels this expertise into her latest project: an anthology of poetry that highlights the voices of dozens of women from ancient China. This collection not only showcases the rich literary heritage of the Chinese mainland but also brings to light the contributions of women throughout history.
In an exclusive conversation with CGTN's The Vibe from Lima, Castro Obando expressed her passion for Chinese culture and her ambition to bridge cultural gaps through literature. Her work aims to inspire a new generation of readers to explore and appreciate the nuanced stories of China's past.
