Chinese-born British author Ma Jian and his books have faced government censorship since his first publication Stick Out Your Tongue in 1988. After publishing The Dark Road in 2013, a novel about the one-child policy, Ma was banned from China. In November 2018, two Hong Kong-based speaking events were canceled due to the venue’s concerns about Ma’s writing and politics.
