Product Description

Product Description

KwayFay was once a homeless scavenger on Hong Kong's waterfronts. Now grown, she lives in a shack on the mountain slopes, and commutes daily to her job as a lowly office clerk. She survives by paying bribes if she has to, and keeping silent when abused. Her only ally is her grandmother's ghost.

5.0 out of 5 stars Rich and strange ghost story, 4 Mar 2009
By D. J Pigott "Pigott" (Perth, Western Australia) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: The Year of the Woman (Paperback)
This is an odd-one-out for the inventor of Lovejoy and Dr Clare. Far from formulaic, it is rests in the understanding that every religious and superstitious belief of the poor inhabitants of Hong Kong is true, and so you follow the first persons of memorable characters such as the gang lord, the rich spendthrift wife, the incompetent trader as well as the innocent heroine, the woman of the story. A wonderful strange and poetic read, well worth it.
