In 1994 Emily Prager adopted a 7-month-old baby in China. Almost five years later, she goes back with LuLu, now a little American girl, to spend three months in Wuhu, the town where her daughter was born in Anhui Province, Southern China, searching for clues to unlock the mystery of LuLu.
Within a week of their arrival, NATO has bombed the Chinese embassy in Belgrade, and anti-American feeling is running high; Emily's is the only non-Chinese face on the streets but Lulu, as a native of the town, is sacrosanct. Mother, daughter and townspeople become involved in a relationship of warmth and complexity that stands politics and prejudice on its head. It is Lulu's joy and pride at having found them that people cannot get over. After all, this is the same town that threw her away.. NOTA: El libro no está en español, sino en inglés.

Buchbeschreibung Paperback. Zustand: new. B&W Photographs (illustrator). Paperback. Enthralling and moving memoir by a journalist, novelist and single mother about the search for her adopted daughter's roots in today's China -a story of origins, identity, the meaning of family, and the mystery of a young girl's past.'I was in my hotel room in Hefei, a town in rural southern China, when my phone rang and a voice said, 'Would you like to meet your baby?' It was two hours early. I raced around preparing as if for a visiting dignitary. I was so scared I could hardly breathe. I was ten thousand miles from home, all alone, and about to meet the person I would be responsible for for the rest of my life.'In 1994 Emily Prager, American novelist and columnist, adopted a 7-month-old baby in China. Five years later, she went back with her adopted daughter to spend three months in Wuhu City, where as a three-day-old baby Lulu had been found on the street in front of the police station. Within a week of their arrival, NATO bombed the Chinese embassy in Belgrade, and anti-American feeling ran high; Emily's was the only non-Chinese face on the streets but Lulu was a 'Wuhuren' and therefore sacrosanct. They and the townspeople became involved in a relationship of warmth and complexity that stood politics and prejudice on its head. It was Lulu's joy and pride at having found them that people could not get over. After all, this was the same town that had thrown her away. Looking beneath the surface of modem China, Wuhu Diary is a gripping account of their experiences, both poignant and funny, and the extraordinary search for Lulu's origins. A memoir by American jounalist Emily Prager about the search for her adopted daughter's roots in today's China. In 1994, Prager adopted seven month old Lulu in China. Five years later she returned to spend three months in Wuhu city, where Lulu had been found on the street.
