      About This Book

      While Teachers' College officials argue over him, Rudy Seaborn waits nervously in an antiquated limousine. As he stares through the windows at the strange sights surrounding him, a curious crowd stares back at the foreigner who has come to Laozhou to teach English.
      Home in Canada a year later, Rudy is still caged by cross-cultural differences as he waits for Li Ming, his banished translator and lover, to arrive. The unrest that explodes in Tiananmen Square grips Rudy in Canada as he waits for Li Ming's visa, waits for a friend's baby to be born, waits and still waits for Li Ming.
