Os chineses nos intrigam. O regime é comunista, mas a economia é capitalista. Eles ficaram enclausurados durante os quase trinta anos de governo de Mao Tsé-Tung e agora viajam pelo mundo todo e são os maiores usuários de internet do planeta. Quem são, afinal, esses 1,3 bilhão de chineses? Por que a relação do país com o Ocidente—e com os vizinhos—mudou tanto ao longo do tempo? Como esse país milenar, responsável por invenções importantíssimas para a humanidade como o papel e a bússola, pode ser acusado de copiar tecnologias estrangeiras?

In Murder in Manchuria, Scott D. Seligman explores an unsolved murder set amid the chaos that reigned in China in the run-up to World War II. The story unfolds against the backdrop of a three-country struggle for control of Manchuria—an area some called China's "Wild East"—and an explosive mixture of nationalities, religions, and ideologies. Semyon Kaspe, a young Jewish musician, is kidnapped, tortured, and ultimately murdered by disaffected, antisemitic White Russians, secretly acting on the orders of Japanese military overlords who covet his father's wealth.

Проживая в Китае 12 лет и посещая множество мест, автор этой книги часто задавала себе вопрос: "Настоящий это Китай или все-таки туристическое место?" Для кого-то настоящий Китай — это серые одноэтажные здания, люди в синих костюмах и кепках со звездой и что-нибудь жуть какое экзотическое в ресторанах. Многие полагают, что истинный Китай нужно искать в деревне — чем глуше, тем лучше. Другие не представляют Китай без небоскребов и технологичных устройств. На самом деле настоящий Китай повсюду, нужно только открыть глаза и отказаться от собственных стереотипов.
