Sobre este artículo
New York:: St Martin's,, (1996). SIGNED hardcover first edition -. Fine in a fine dust jacket (as new.). First printing. The author's unusual first novel, a first-person novel written in the voice of Chai, a former Red Guard from Northeastern China who fled his country by swimming to Hong Kong, eventually making his way to the United States, and now living a version of the immigrant's dream, married to the sensible Ding and with one child. He has developed an obsession for the maxims of Calvin Coolidge, whose American frugality contrasts, in his mind, with the corruption of the Chinese Communist leaders. SIGNED on the title page. 273 pp.
