Produktbeschreibung
The stylish, kaleidoscopic debut novel about sisterhood, love and Shanghai, from the Editor-in-Chief of The Shanghai Literary Review Moving backwards in time from 2040 to 2014, Shanghailanders beautifully unfurls the story of the Yang family against the background of an ever-evolving Shanghai. Rotating perspectives through each member of the family as well as those who live in their orbit, the novel shows how secrets both separate and unite a family, irrevocably affecting the lives they touch. Shanghailanders is more than an illuminating rendering of family; it also paints a kaleidoscopic portrait of Shanghai itself. From the roads taken by a driver swerving past self-driving cars of the future, to the intimate apartments where the family make bids to connect - the speed, the technology and the history of this old, futuristic city shine through the novel to form the foundations of this exceptional debut.
