About this product
Product Information
Growing up in a small, riverside town, Little Bright is thrusted into the political whirlwinds along with his family during China's Cultural Revolution. When a reversal of the winds of reform blows through the land, however, he learns the once-forbidden tongue--English--which lends wings to his sense and sensibility. At college, he adopts a new English name, Victor. With the deepening of his knowledge of the English language, he begins to place himself under the tutelage of Pavlov, Sherlock Holmes, and Shakespeare. When the story unravels, however, Victor's un-Chinese passion and tension threaten to topple his moral world and mental universe. Now, he must wade into an uncharted journey to unlock the dilemma and to unearth his destiny. Drawing on his own life experiences, George Lee has fashioned an unforgettable coming-of-age story about fate and faith, good and evil, power of imagination and storytelling, and, above all, wonder of English literature.

Reviews
"Deep into philosophical and political questions... I felt at times that I was rereading The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho." --Virginia Williams, Rosepoint Publishing, "Both a coming-of-age story as well a coming-into-consciousness story... both fable-like and sufficiently intimate to compel us to follow Victor's transformation." --Valerie Mills-Milde, The Miramichi Reader, "George Lee is a master storyteller... Inspiration and insight has never been presented so lyrically... Breath-takingly beautiful and profoundly moving, Dancing in the River should be added to every reader's must-read list." -- Female First and Male Xtra "Book of the year? No. This is the book of the decade!...Guernica Editions has a reputation for selecting the cream of the literary crop, and Dancing in the River by George Lee is a bountiful harvest all by itself... A coming-of-age story that goes beyond the individual to break down cultural barriers." -- London Economic "A must-read for today's turbulent world ... All readers should wade in as soon as possible, for this might just be the best debut novel we've seen this year." --Gwyneth Rees, Reader's Digest UK "A rich cornucopia of memoir, lush literary fiction, and ancient fables both perplexing and illuminating in their simplicity and depth ... Lee brings us a generously open and engaging view of an enigmatic China we never get to see." -- Anne Eliot Feldman, BookTrib "Deep into philosophical and political questions... I felt at times that I was rereading The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho." --Virginia Williams, Rosepoint Publishing
