The DKU Intercultural Book Club is hosted by Austin Woerner in partnership with the Duke Kunshan University Library.
Each session the Book Club will choose one book to read in both English and Chinese. Read in whichever language you prefer and come ready to discuss your reactions to the book with other readers who may have experienced it in the other language!
昆杜跨文化读书会是由 Austin Woerner （温侯廷）与昆山杜克大学图书馆携手主持的一个文学社团。
每个月我们会选一本有中英文版的书，大家可以选自己喜欢的版本（中文版或英文版）然后一起分享各自的阅读心得。

Raymond Chandler, The Big Sleep
雷蒙德·钱德勒 ，《长眠不醒》 傅惟慈 译
In the lawless world of 1930s Los Angeles, an eccentric millionaire hires private detective Philip Marlowe to look into the affairs of his two strange and beautiful daughters. This book is an icon of detective fiction, and in English the writing is lovely. Fu Weici 傅惟慈, who also translated The Moon and Sixpence, is a highly regarded literary translator, and the Chinese edition comes highly recommended.
