Book excerpt: This collection of 36 essays examines some of the pressing social, cultural and existential issues facing Hong Kong. It takes us from the gravity-defying property market to the plunging depths of old age poverty, from urban streets to traffic-free islands, from the culture-shocked Western expat to the misunderstood Mainland Chinese and the disenfranchised domestic worker. The result is a treatise on modern Asian life that is thought-provoking, touching and immensely entertaining.
