Book Description
An elderly peasant woman lives with
her coffin in the kitchen. An American teacher is "adopted" by a
village family. An eccentric grandfather teaches Chinese to his American
student by jumping around the room and other perilous pantomimes.
China is a vast and populous nation which demands our understanding. But while
newspaper headlines commonly focus on politics and economics, Saving
Grandmother's Face, written by Christian university teachers in China, recounts
their experiences in the classroom and in the countryside, celebrating a
child's birth and mourning a child's death, grading papers
and discussing Chinese literature.
Through these stories you will see a side of China often left out-the human
side.
