Description

Ruby's life in Shanghai seems perfect - she has found her new friend Rose and fallen in love with Roman. But as time goes by, things start to unravel. In this novel, Lucy Brydon weaves together the ancient story of Zhuangzi's Dream of the Butterfly with a coming-of-age tale that offers a satirical look at life in 19th-century China. Set against the vibrant backdrop of Shanghai, Ruby's struggles and triumphs are intertwined with the city's rapid development. This is a story about growth, change, and the complexities of human experience. With its unique blend of Eastern and Western influences, Shanghai Passenger offers a fascinating glimpse into a pivotal moment in Chinese history.
