Bai Song and his wife, who live in the unit across the hallway, have a well-equipped kitchen with all the mod cons. Plus they' re old and retired, meaning they' re ripe for a bit of rough fun, Clockwork Orange-style.China at the turn of the century. Everything is upside down. Respect for your elders? You' ve got be joking. Communism? Yeah right. Cut-throat capitalism is the only way to get ahead. " To get rich is glorious" .In ten wonderfully surreal stories, Anne Stevenson-Yang conjures up the atmosphere of a society in freefall. China as you' ve never imagined it: a wife who fakes her divorce so she can buy an apartment; neglected teens who tie up an elderly couple so they can use their kitchen; a country girl who poisons a disabled man for a residence permit.Living in China for nearly twenty-five years, Stevenson-Yang became fascinated in the " muffled violence beneath the placid surface" .
