DESCRIPTION:

Author Sidney Shapiro taught Chinese in the U.S. Army during the Second World War and arrived in Shanghai in 1947 for a ?ook around?but ended up spending the rest of his life in China!

A foreigner in an alien land, he fell in love with and married Phoenix, a Chinese beauty and active revolutionary. Entranced by Chinese culture and society, Shapiro gradually became involved in highly dramatic developments . . Through My China: The Metamorphosis of A Country and A Man runs the theme of an unusual love - for a Phoenix and a Dragon. During his nearly 50 years of marriage to Phoenix, she teaches him to appreciate the Dragon, and his increasing understanding of the Dragon intensifies his love for the charming, tempestuous Phoenix . . .

At the age of 80 years, after 50 years in China, Sidney Shapiro has been able to see the whole picture, savour it to the hilt, and wrote this book. Speaking from an inside vantage point not available to many, he tells a warmly fond yet coolly objective China story, a rich and thought-provoking tour de force.
