Chinese Dissonance

Chinese Dissonance juxtaposes ten stories about a homeless internet celebrity, a suicidal bride, an immigrant flower salesman, a world famous artist, a horrifying viral video and a former Communist soldier, all the while giving a glimpse into Chinese internet culture and its bizarre fascinations. Guy Gunaratne adapts real world commentary from Chinese internet social network streams and message boards and weaves them into ten unforgettable short stories.
