Rosemary Mahoney set off in the late 1980s for a year long exchange to teach at Hangzhou University in China. The record of her experiences is fascinating, revealing much about the culture and people one year before Tiananmen Square. This book is not a fun, easy read, but brings the reader face to face with the realities of China at that time period.
