Ebook About "An evocative portrait of a troubled soul in a bewildering land."–KirkusThe riveting true story of the transformation of a Chinese city and an American who finds himself stranded there.A detailed chronicle of everyday life in modern China, a window into the lives of Chinese peasants and the foreigners with whom they fall in and out of romance, and an inspiring tale of courage and love, Chaos and Grime: A Year in the Life of a Chinese City takes you where no memoir has dared to go before now. This "shocking," "disturbing," and "Kafkaesque" real-life thriller pulls no punches in painting a complex portrait of contemporary China.Jim is a young American scholar. In the summer he arrives in Wuhan, the heart of China on the Yangtze River. In this world of cement and corruption, of fraud and fickle women, his initial optimism gives way to a poignant series of devastating revelations about what really happens to China’s “leftover women” and how the authorities stop at nothing to try to prevent such knowledge from getting out.An intensely personal story of understanding and connection, as well as an illumination of power relations in a society in flux, Chaos and Grime captures in exquisite detail the lives of those caught up in the currents of history as it occurs here and now."This book should be required reading in Asian studies classes in colleges all over the United States."–AmazonBook Chaos and Grime: A Year in the Life of a Chinese City Review :
The author painstakingly describes what life is like in China, from Wuhan to other surrounding provinces. This book describes his second trip to China as an American student, as he provides remembrances and connections to his first trip. This is the first book I have read in seeking to better understand life for the average Chinese. I must admit, while I have gotten an impression from snatches and glimpses from newsreels, from what I have read or scenes from movies, the details that the author describes about the lack of sanitation in public restaurants and bathrooms were astonishing, shocking and disgusting. The author shares his illnesses and health challenges as a result.The incredible challenges of traveling from point A to point B were also very surprising, even though one could imagine that there would be some difficulty with so many people. One could not imagine the time it takes even when the destination was not that far. If you did not understand how to get from point A to point B, you could spend hours getting to a place that should only take a few minutes.The author also does a great job of describing how communist rule affect the everyday life of citizens in both overt and subtle ways--from how children relate to their parents, to how women are treated and regarded based upon age, marital eligibility and personal conduct to what possession of a car or higher degree of education could negatively impact a woman's life. The author describes in detail how this plays out in romantic relationships or the lack thereof.The author describes his experience as a foreign student, which was typical of life for foreign students despite their country of origin. I found the confusion, challenges, and ineptitude often practiced, intentionally or unintentionally, at the administrative level at the universities surprising. Even English teaching jobs at the secondary level, that foreign students sought as jobs, were operated haphazardly. And, finally the relationships, both personal and professional, while interesting were quite revealing about how cultural mores primarily trump feelings and genuineness when it comes to interactions between men and women whether on an individual or group level. The author describes many, many of those different relationships in detail, including his personal love interests--often with many of them following the same pattern and trajectory. There were to be so many described in detail, that they began to sound the same, with the reader feeling that the outcome was predictable. Overall, this is a very good book to learn about what typical life is really like in China on a personal level as well as on a societal level, as experienced first-hand. I remember reading a book about a boy who’s left North Korea through a fence and later made it as a writer in America. I felt very inspired by that story as I’m also coming from a country with a harsh past. Not as harsh as North Korea or other totalitarian countries but bad enough. The book at hand written by Jacob is a first-hand account about living in China, a country that’s always been in between development and struggle. I don’t know about crimes but chaos? Yeah, that’s what China is to many of its residents.The memoir is written smoothly and can be read by anyone. The book is about the struggles of the average people, women and men who are battling an invisible force that simply holds them behind what they’re supposed to become. Women who are highly educated just to be named “leftovers” because they’re not married? That’s really messed up!How can a regime tell you how to be happy? Who are they to think for their people instead of letting them grow their ways? The story here is eye-opening, thrilling, amazing. I loved the development of the story, the fact that everything happens in Wuhan, a city that we’ve been made aware of way too much in the last 6 months, and the honest reporting on life in a country that’s misusing power over its citizens.
