The handover in 1997 saw Hong Kongs smooth transition from colonial to Communist rule under the auspices of the one country, two systems framework. But twenty years on, the real impact of the sovereignty change is just starting to register: the citys near-total economic integration with the mainland, a massive influx of Chinese visitors, simmering cross-border tensions and a rapid erosion of freedoms. Believing that we are stronger and louder together, PEN Hong Kong invited some of Hong Kongs most prominent literary and creative minds to reflect on the citys post-colonial development, in a definitive compendium of essays, poems, fiction and artwork that marks this historical milestone.
