Nominated for the Women's Prize for Fiction 2024, "River East, River West" unfolds its story first in Shanghai, 2007. Alva, a fourteen-year-old, feels a sense of betrayal as her American mother becomes engaged to Lu Fang, their wealthy landlord. This unexpected development spurs Alva to dream of escape, envisioning the prestigious American School as her ticket to freedom. However, the school does not meet her expectations. The narrative rewinds to Qingdao in 1985, where we meet a young Lu Fang, who, despite being a lowly shipping clerk, harbors dreams of a prosperous future. His aspirations face challenges, particularly due to severe political changes. Yet, as China begins to embrace foreign influences and capital, Lu Fang encounters a woman who prompts him to reconsider his life's path. This engaging tale offers a unique twist on the traditional east-west immigrant story, set amid China's economic boom. It delves into themes of race, identity, and family, while scrutinizing the false promises of capitalism and the cherished dreams of individuals.
