Now, as she experiences the birth of her daughter in a London maternity ward surrounded by women from all over the world, she looks back on that journey. It begins in the fishing village shack on the East China Sea where her illiterate grandparents raised her, and brings her to a rapidly changing Beijing, full of contradictions: a thriving underground art scene amid mass censorship, curious Westerners who held out affection only to disappear back home. Eventually Xiaolu determined to see the world beyond China for herself, and now, after fifteen years in Europe, her words resonate with the insight of someone both an outsider and at home, in a world far beyond the country of her birth.--From the publisher. 001377013 588__ $$aDescription based on online resource; title from digital title page (viewed on August 20, 2021). 001377013 60010 $$aGuo, Xiaolu,$$d1973-$$xChildhood and youth. 001377013 60017 $$aGuo, Xiaolu,$$d1973-$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01986691 001377013 648_7 $$a1976-2099$$2fast 001377013 650_0 $$aAuthors, Chinese$$y21st century$$vBiography. 001377013 650_0 $$aAuthors, English$$y21st century$$vBiography. 001377013 650_0 $$aWomen$$zChina$$vBiography. 001377013 650_7 $$aAuthors, Chinese.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst00821889 001377013 650_7 $$aAuthors, English.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst00821945 001377013 650_7 $$aManners and customs.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01007815 001377013 650_7 $$aWomen.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01176568 001377013 651_0 $$aChina$$xSocial life and customs$$y1976-2002. 001377013 651_7 $$aChina.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01206073 001377013 655_4 $$aElectronic books. 001377013 655_7 $$aBiographies.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01919896 001377013 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aGuo, Xiaolu, 1973-$$tNine continents.$$bFirst Grove Atlantic hardcover edition.$$dNew York : Grove Press, October 2017$$z9780802127136$$w(DLC) 2017032639 001377013 852__ $$bebk 001377013 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=6195377$$zOnline Access 001377013 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1377013$$pGLOBAL_SET 001377013 980__ $$aBIB 001377013 980__ $$aEBOOK 001377013 982__ $$aEbook 001377013 983__ $$aOnline
