WHO ARE THE CHINESE?
Through on-the-ground interviews, Ana Fuentes uncovers the real
China and offers a panoramic look at Chinese culture from the point
of view of its citizens. She spent nearly 4 years living and
working in China and discovered a world few have written about . .
. until now.
"FROM THE DRAGON'S MOUTH: Ten True Stories that Unveil the Real
China" is an exquisitely intimate look into the China of the 21st
century as seen through the eyes of its people. This is the first
time that a book combines the voices of everyday Chinese people
from so many different layers of society: a dissident tortured by
the police; a young millionaire devoted to nationalism; a
peasant-turnedprostitute to pay for the best education for her son;
a woman who married her gay friend to escape from social pressure,
just like an estimated 16 million other women; a venerable Kung-Fu
master unable to train outdoors because of the hazardous pollution;
the daughter of two Communist Party officials getting rich coaching
Chinese entrepreneurs in the ways of Capitalism; among others.
ANA FUENTES is a journalist whose reports have been broadcast on
three continents by Radio Netherland, Prisa Radio, CNN en espanol
and others. Ana holds a degree in Journalism from the Complutense
University in Madrid and the Sorbonne University in Paris, and a
Master's in Journalism from El Pais and the University Autonoma in
Madrid.
