On his way to the Nobel banquet in Stockholm, Chinese poet/author Chen Maiping dropped in for a chat with his barber, Mikael in Västerhaninge. This year's Nobel prize in literature winner, Mo Yan is a very good friend to Maiping, and his wife Anna, who has translated most of Mo Yan's works to Swedish. Mikael got a fine gift from Maiping. A signed and dedicated copy of one of Mo Yan's novels.
