From war zones to ancient verses, Patricia Castro Obando is redefining cultural diplomacy. The Peruvian journalist and sinologist, who spent nearly two decades immersing herself in Chinese culture, just dropped a literary bombshell: an anthology showcasing poetry by women from ancient China.
‘This book is my love letter to China’s unsung heroines,’ Castro told CGTN’s The Vibe from Lima. Her collection spotlights forgotten female voices spanning dynasties – think Tang-era scribes and Ming philosophers who’ve been waiting centuries for their global spotlight.
Fun fact: Castro’s journey began in 2003 when she traded Peru’s mountains for Beijing’s hutongs. Now, she’s become South America’s go-to China whisperer, blending academic rigor with storyteller flair. ‘Poetry isn’t just art – it’s the DNA of a civilization,’ she says, proving history can totally be TikTok-cool.
