Hey Comrade, Pull My Finger: 5 Years Living & Working in China 1st edition
Texas John
The purpose of the book is to teach people about Chinese culture in a fun and entertaining way.
This book, about living and working in China, is a collection of true stories that occurred while Texas John was in eastern China.
Together these stories tell the tale of the expat experience as lived by a guy who didn?t spend his entire time in some village reviewing his Chinese flash cards.
Texas John finds himself on a Chinese game show, a drinking competition with a pimp, the only foreigner working at a company, fighting crime, and entangled in numerous ridiculous, irritating, and sometimes frightening situations.
These fascinating and often hilarious encounters brings John a clearer understanding of the culture and country he has found himself in.
The book has real-life examples of what to do and what not to do to while living and working in China, and explanations of Chinese culture and people.
Go on the journey with Texas John and see how he learns about social harmony, principles of Confucius, and the importance of ?face?, as he pursues his never ending search for adventure in the Middle Kingdom.
