Vivian Zhu
Shenzhen Head
As a rebellious Shanghainese, Vivian resides in Shenzhen as an English teacher. She is a proud alumna of the University of Edinburgh in Comparative Literature and she also studied with Professor Tom Drury in Writer’s Workshop Summer Program at the University of Iowa in 2019.
Vivian’s current interest lies in the inner lives of Chinese millennials in a globalized world, and in particular how overseas experiences shape their values, identities and everyday lives. She is working on her novella the Boyfriend I Talk with on the Phone.
