Gu, Wu and Moratto explore how Chinese Science Fiction transcends cultural and linguistic barriers with its unique blend of imagination, philosophy, and cultural reflection and provides crucial insights on how its translation shapes our understanding of the genre and contributes to the wider discussion on the circulation of non-Western literature in a globalised world.

Through a detailed examination of translation practices, multimodal adaptations, and the complexities, the book offers fresh insights into the challenges and opportunities that shape Chinese Science Fiction and examine its role of adaptation across different media – such as films, graphic novels, and online platforms—in expanding its reach and impact. This leads to broader exploration on the cultural, political, and economic implications of Chinese Science Fiction international success and how it contributes to global discourses on the future.

A comprehensive volume for scholar and students in translation studies, science fiction studies, comparative literature and Chinese studies as well as those interested in intersections of global literature, translation, and intercultural communication.
