For weeks they went all over London on the little red Honda,
weaving up hills at walking speed, down alleys and pavements,
through shopping precincts, warm in the late-summer nights . . .
and he'd park outside pubs, proud of his China girl . . . For Tom
it was a wonderful summer. Innocent, broke and slightly awestruck
on his arrival in London, he was working as a delivery boy at a
Chinese takeaway. Then May, the daughter of the owner, became his
love. But suddenly, inexplicably, Tom loses his home, his job and
his beloved. A squat, then a battered green van, become his refuge,
his longing for May his one obsession. As Tom travels through the
desperate sub cultures of low-life London, he is also caught up in
his dreams about China, each more vivid and shocking than the last.
China Dreams is dazzling, disturbing, lyrical and occasionally
fearsome - a stunning literary achievement.
