9781925462326: Those Shanghai Girls (Simplified Chinese Second Edition)

Synopsis

In the "Blazing Age of Red" during the 1970s, a time much praised by Chinese poets and writers, the sky was as grim as the walled land. Where all shared the same gaunt expressions and social mannerisms. Where all wore the same blue-grey uniforms. Yet, when four young women walk out of Shanghai's narrow lanes and alleys, their aspiration for excellence and fierce pursuit of love casts a colourful light against this gloomy background; making life meaningful and valuable again. Those Shanghai Girls tells a brilliant story about contemporary China as it continues to transform and adapt to this beautiful new world.
