| Publisher Description: As the airport commuter bus insinuated itself into the maniacal Beijing traffic I knew a decisive mistake had been made. Perhaps not. In this collection of autobiographical stories I recount my experiences and observations of three years working, living, loving and shitting in north-eastern China. The difficulties of coming to terms As the airport commuter bus insinuated itself into the maniacal Beijing traffic I knew a decisive mistake had been made. Perhaps not.
