About
Lionel Schultz is just an ordinary guy, living the quiet life in Pittsburgh. He has two children, an ex-wife, a regular seat at his favourite bar-all he needs, in fact, to keep him happy. Fang Jie is a migrant worker in a Chinese factory, making plug-in chargers for the latest generation of augmented-reality eyewear. His life is an unbroken routine of fourteen hour shifts and disappointment. In the ordinary course of things, each should be oblivious to the other's existence-but one day their dreams collide.The factory becomes Lionel's recurring nightmare; his world becomes Fang Jie's American dream. Seven thousand miles apart, and aware of each other's every movement, the two men are drawn into one another's world. Can they co-exist there, or must one dream prevail? What price for peace, when one man has so much to lose; what price happiness, when one has everything to gain?
