Xu Ruiyan: The Lost and Forgotten Languages of Shanghai (English)
An explosion reverberates through the Swan Hotel in Shanghai, and it is not just shards of glass and rubble that come crashing down. Li Jing and Zhou Meiling find their marriage rocked to its foundations by the loss of the language that brought them together. For Li Jing, who is injured in the explosion, awakens from brain surgery only able to utter the unsteady phrases of English he learnt as a child, a language that Meiling and theiir young son Pang Pang cannot speak.. When an American neurologist arrives, tasked with coaxing language back on to Li Jing's tongue, she is as disorientated as her patient in this bewitching, bewildering city..
