Building 46 draws its reader into the darkest, quietest spaces of China's vast capital.

Produktbeschreibung
Building 46 draws its reader into the darkest, quietest spaces of China's vast capital. Set just before the 2008 Beijing Olympics, this queer coming-out-and-of-age story explores the interplay between so-called Eastern and Western superpowers, between humans and halls of power, and between light and dark. It is a love letter to Beijing. It is an expression of love for its intellectuals, its imams, its waitresses, its foreigners, its wanderers, its middle-aged moms, its shadow men, its DVD bootleggers, its migrant labourers. It is a love letter to a people very different to their mono-dimensional portrayals in foreign correspondence. From the author of the award-winning and critically acclaimed nonfiction book When We Were Arabs comes a stunning, poetic fiction debut that aims to decentralise and destabilise the status quos of the anglophone book industry, to make room for a new and a fresh cannon of enthralling, delightful, and consciously political writing for an emerging and indignant generation of readers.

Autorenporträt
Massoud Hayoun is an award-winning author and journalist from Los Angeles. In 2019 his debut When We Were Arabs was published by New Press to critical claim. Part-memoir, part political exploration, it retells the story of his grandparents' emigration through Egypt, Tunisia, Palestine and America, uncovering what Arabness meant then and what it means today. It won the Arab American Book Award and was the U.S. National Public Radio book of the year. As a journalist Massoud has reported on international affairs in several languages for Al Jazeera, CNN and Agence France-Presse.
