the book was "a very worthwhile endeavour"; she congratulated the authors and press and stated that "We should all welcome the appearance of this anthology, and if we have ourselves an alternative vision of what constitutes Chinese literature this century it is up to us to compile and publish our own anthologies." Philip F. Williams of the University of Arizona praised how the book collected multiple translations into a single book, and how they were of a "high" quality of translation.
