Synopsis:
SHORTLISTED FOR THE WOMEN'S PRIZE FOR FICTIONSet against the backdrop of developing modern China, this mesmerizing literary debut is part coming-of-age tale, part family and social drama, as it follows two generations searching for belonging and opportunity in a rapidly changing world. Shanghai, 2007: Fourteen-year-old Alva has always longed for more. Raised by her American expat mother, she�s never known her Chinese father, and she 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. She plots for the next best thing: the American School in Shanghai. Upon admission, though, Alva is surprised to discover an institution run by an exclusive community of expats and the ever-wilder thrills of a city where foreigners can ostensibly act as they please. 1985: In the seaside city of Qingdao, Lu Fang is a young married man and a lowly clerk in a shipping yard. Although he once dreamed of a bright future, he is now one of many casualties in his country�s harsh political reforms. So 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. In a stunning reversal of the east-to-west immigrant narrative and set against China�s political history and economic rise,�River East, River West is an intimate family drama and a sharp social novel. Alternating between Alva and Lu Fang�s points of view, this is a profoundly�moving exploration of race and class, cultural identity and belonging, and the often-false promise of the American Dream..
