Description
After being tricked in love in this novel's prequel, China Love, Ma returns to China, where he has a lot to learn. Friction at his appointed school in Dongguan leads to the sack and the steep learning curve continues when he teaches in a Chinese Party-controlled university. His love of the country develops, first in a failed relationship with one of his students, then when meets the love of his life. As well as a love story, this novel is also a fascinating study of life under China's new "market-Stalinism".
