Qilu Night歧路派对
A small winter-solstice gathering at Minor Space, London, marking the first time in two years that Qilu’s three editors were in the same city.
Poster (the year on it is wrong – it was 2025)
On 20 December 2025, the eve of the winter solstice, the three editors of Qilu Criticism – Weitian Liu, Cindy Ziyun Huang and Nie Xiaoyi – found themselves in the same city, London, for the first time in two years. To mark the occasion we held a small gathering with some food and some drinks at Minor Space in Deptford, open to old and new friends and readers.
The evening had a few small performances: a reading by Weitian, Cindy writing backwards (on reversed paper), and a short round of thanks from me.
2025年12月20日，冬至前一天，《歧路》编辑部的刘伟田、黄梓耘、聂小依时隔两年在伦敦再度聚首，在 Minor Space 办了一场有吃有喝的小型聚会，欢迎新老朋友和读者。现场有伟田的朗诵、梓耘的「倒着写字」（是纸倒着，不是人倒着），以及小依的致谢。
Thanks to Minor Space for their support. I later wrote about the evening – who pays for the food, and why it all disappeared – in Where Does the Meal Come From?
