Hillary's Autobiography Sells Like Hot Cakes in China
(snip)

In its first three days on the shelves, 1,850 copies of the book - which has a print run of 100,000 - were sold at Beijing's Xidan Bookstore, a record figure for biographies.

Yilin Press negotiated the copyright of the book's Chinese language edition in April last year and finished the translation 40 days after the English edition was published in the United States on June 9.

"Our purpose in translating the book is to give Chinese readers a chance to learn more about contemporary US society, culture and politics since, in the book, Hillary gives a quite comprehensive account of US foreign affairs, social and political events during Bill Clinton's administration," said Yilin Press President Zhang Zude.

He also said that Hillary Clinton could be a role model for people, especially women, who are trying to achieve success in both work and life.
