Shanghai Book Traders

Shanghai’s most famous writers divulge the secrets of a city that has seized the world’s limelight. What lies beyond the glittering skyline and the beautiful facade? The 31 stories in this two-volume series reveal the true rhythm of Shanghai as experienced by people who are most intimate with it. Peer into the daily life, the local customs, the quick romances, and family get-togethers to see the inner fabric of one of the most complicated and paradoxical cities in the East.
