Autor Jenni Daiches
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 30 sep 2006
Eleanor Dickinson escapes Scotland and the inevitability of the direction of her life to the Eastern strangeness of China. In leaving behind the physical closeness of her relationships with her partner, parents, brother and family she is able to analyse and confront 'the mush of dissatisfaction' that had been expanding to fill her life.

Descriere

Setting off on an intense voyage of self-discovery, Eleanor Dickinson bases herself in Beijing. But as the young democracy movement flexes its muscles, what freedoms will be asserted in this ancient nation? And will Eleanor discover what really matters in her life before the tanks roll into Tiananmen Square?
