Requests:  0 Summary:  "A narrative account profiling the ordinary men and women who live, work, and dream on the author's street in Shanghai, inspired by his enormously popular Marketplace series of the same name"-- Modern Shanghai is a global city in the midst of a renaissance. Dreamers arrive each day to partake in a mad torrent of capital, ideas, and opportunity. Schmitz is one of them. Follow him as he immerses himself in his neighborhood, forging deep relationships with ordinary people who see in the city's sleek skyline a brighter future, and a chance to rewrite their destinies. The result is an intimate and surprising portrait that dispenses with the tired stereotypes of a country we think we know.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Aina Haina Public Library Adult Nonfiction 951.132 Sc Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hawaii Kai Public Library Adult Nonfiction 951.132 Sc Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library Language, Literature & History 951.132 Sc Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 951.132 Schmitz Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kapolei Public Library Adult Nonfiction 951.132 Sc Checked In Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Nonfiction 951.132 Sc Checked In Add Copy to MyList Mountain View P/S Library Adult Nonfiction 951.132 Sc Checked In Add Copy to MyList
