Min Li's ‘Perfect Place' transports the reader to the hard realities of modern China and evokes with great vividness and energy what life is like for most Chinese people.
After breaking the chains of domestic servitude, Min Li comes face to face with corrupt government, rapacious corporations, organized crime, and human trafficking. Illegally fleeing the countryside to the big city, she learns to rely on herself. When she becomes a victim of human trafficking in the Middle East, Min Li is saved by the most unlikely of heroes, an American teacher whom she once loved twenty years before in China.
