Shi Tiesheng

Shi Tiesheng was born in Beijing on 4 January 1951. Sent in 1969 to a village in Shaanxi, he was struck in 1972 by paralysis of both legs and returned to Beijing, where he lived from then on in a wheelchair. He published his first stories in 1979. Affected by kidney failure at the end of the 1990s, he was on dialysis until his death, which occurred in Beijing on 31 December 2010; his liver was given, as he had wished, to a patient in Tianjin.
