China in Drag : Travels with a Cross Dresser, Paperback / softback Book

China in Drag : Travels with a Cross Dresser Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Approaching the end of his nine year stint as a BBC journalist in Beijing, Michael Bristow decided he wanted to write about the country's modern history.

To assist him he asked for the help of his language teacher, who was born just two years after the communist party came to power in 1949.

The changing fortunes of his life have mirrored the ups and downs of his country, which has moved from communist poverty to capitalist wealth in just a single generation.

It came as a surprise though, to learn that the teacher was also a cross-dresser.

Michael gradually realised that the teacher's story is the story of modern China.
