Fruit Dreams & Other Asian Stories is a vivid and compelling debut collection of the various voices that make up Hong Kong, China and nearby communities. Thirteen stories deal with the everyday lives of everyday people, set against such backdrops as SARS, illegal immigration and Falun Gong protests.

Roseanne Thong writes as both a passionate outsider and, after fifteen years of living and working in Asia, an informed insider. If you've lived or traveled in the region, Fruit Dreams & Other Asian Stories will resonate with strong emotions. If you haven't, let these stories guide you on your first visit.
