Fei Ye (Chinese: 菲野; born 1962) is a Chinese poet who was also involved in the Chinese democracy movement.[1] Although often associated with the Misty Poets,[2] he considers himself of a younger generation and dismisses the label.[3] Fei has published four underground books of poetry and translated two books of Russian poetry, including the work of Osip Mandelstam.[3] He lives in the United States after being exiled from China.
