The characters in this literary exploration of one of the world's
biggest cities are all on a mission. Whether it is responding to
events around them, or following some impulse of their own, they
are defined by their determination - a refusal to lose themselves
in a city that might otherwise leave them anonymous, disconnected,
alone. From the neglected mother whose side-hustle in collecting
sellable waste becomes an obsession, to the schoolboy determined to
end a long-standing feud between his family and another, the
characters in The Book of Shanghai show a defiance that reminds us
why Shanghai - despite its hurtling economic growth -remains an
epicentre for individual creativity.
