A modern woman adrift in modern China.
Wide-ranging and playful, China Girl is a journey into today\'s Asia as well as an Asia of the imagination..
The Stories in this collection encompass everything from contemporary vignettes about urban life to fable-like musings on memories and the art of storytelling.
In its nine tales, China Girl documents the collisions between East and West, the power of myth and the burden of history, and loves lost and almost found.
These are the characters that populate Ho Lin\'s short story collection China Girl.
Actors placed at the service of comedies and tragedies, depending on a filmmaker\'s whim...
A princess of a kingdom that no longer exists.
A researcher of war atrocities who must come to grips with her own family tragedies.
A drunken dissident and his less-then-happy minder.
Would-be lovers connected and separated by random chance.
