Title : The Promise at Dawn - Romain Gary - book Summary : You'll be a hero, you'll be a general, Gabriele D'Annunzio, Ambassador of France - all these thugs don't know who you are! I don't think a son ever hated his mother as much as I did at that moment. But as I tried to explain to her in an angry whisper that she was irremediably compromising me in the eyes of the Air Force, and as I made another effort to push her behind the taxi, her face took on a helpless expression, her lips began to tremble, and I heard once more the intolerable phrase, which had long since become a classic in our relationship: - So, you're ashamed of your old mother?

Title : The Promise of Shanghai - Stéphane Fière - book Summary : Driven by poverty, the peasant Fu Zhanxin leaves for Shanghai to become a laborer, thus joining the cohort of "mingong," these migrant workers who since the mid-1990s have formed a floating population, forced to work at will, marginalized socially, culturally, politically, and administratively. It is without compromise, with a great deal of distance and irony, that "The Promise of Shanghai" recounts his daily life: his loves, his apprehensions, his joys, but also the brutality, arbitrariness, and cruelty inherent in a large metropolis where reason and morality have disappeared. Beyond the portrait of a group excluded from the race for progress, it is contemporary China that is analyzed here with finesse and realism, far from conventional clichés. "After attending Sciences Po, studying Chinese and political science at Harvard, and a professional career in the United States, Stéphane Fière has been working in China for several years. He has lived in the Chinese world for twenty years (Taiwan, Hong Kong, Shanghai, etc.) and speaks Mandarin." EAN : 9782742769155 Used book Book in good condition The book matches the photo
