Shanghaied

A short and highly subjective overview of life lived in the spectacularly modern and unfathomably ancient megalopolis of Shanghai, from the point of view of an American theater director in his eighth decade. A takedown of the black and white portrait of China as it is spoon-fed by the Western media to the masses. Certain to be scorned for its contrarian stance, or dismissed as little more than naive folderol, the author’s unapologetic love for his adopted home is on full display.
