River east, river west : a novel

Lescure, Aube Rey (author.).

Summary: Shanghai, 2007. Raised by her American expat mother, fourteen-year-old Alva has never known her Chinese father, and is certain a better life awaits them in America. But when her mother announces her engagement to their wealthy Chinese landlord, Lu Fang, Alva's hopes are dashed. 1985: Lu Fang is a young, married man and a lowly clerk in a shipping yard. When China opens its doors to the first wave of foreigners in decades, Lu Fang's world is split wide open after he meets an American woman who makes him confront difficult questions about his current status in life, and how much will ever be enough.
