Description
Intensely personal, at times a little controversial, âBeijing Tai Taiâ is a rollercoaster ride of honesty and openness as a wife (âtai taiâ) and mother juggles suburban family life in urban Beijing. Presented in a series of love/hate column-like snippets â on topics ranging from the consumption of bull testicles to the life-altering experience of walking the Great Wall â it exposes expatriate life in a country on the brink of great change. From tragic hair moments and bustling silk markets to Chinaâs quest to stay true to its ancient origins, âBeijing Tai Taiâ is a book for anyone interested in this diverse and culturally rich country. Itâs for anyone, from anywhere, who knows what itâs like to fall in love, explore new worlds and live with challenges. Itâs about life in a city full of soaring highs and disconsolate lows â but never anything less than remarkable.
