Xue Xinran shares from her 2015 book, Buy Me the Sky, recounting stories of men and women born under China's single-child policy instituted in 1979. From the businessman's son unable to pack his own suitcase - to the PhD student who pulled herself out of extreme rural poverty, these revered 'little emperors and suns' form the emerging face of China.
Recorded at Sherman Contemporary Art Foundation (SCAF), 21 May 2015, in association with the 2015 Sydney Writers' Festival.
