Mandarin Edition - Blue Sky Red Tears

Our Chinese language version of the acclaimed novel Blue Sky Red Tears is finally for sale. A longer than expected delay in the approval process with China's governmental censors has held up its release for an additional three months. Selling the book within China still involves other monumental hurdles, but at least we have approval for shipping to China (of this version) from CafePress.
