At the end of the 20th century, Suso Mourelo, made a hiatus in his activity as a teacher, reporter and scriptwriter to undertake a trip through China that would turn his plans for the future and his life itself upside down.

It traveled nearly 15,000 kilometers in all types of transport, reaching Tibetan villages in the eastern mountains, villages of ethnic minorities in the borderlands, places abandoned by development, villages anchored in tradition, and industrial centers and cities in after modernity.

An exceptional witness to the moments before the vertiginous change of the Asian giant, the author, thanks to his clear vision of the world and his peculiar way of traveling, draws a portrait of a China that was beginning to be what we know today, at the same time lived a China that will never return.

Suso Mourelo is the author of dozens of stories, hundreds of journalistic reports, and several travel books. He has recently published The Western Frontier, The Alphabet of an Immigrant, and The Five Tombs of Genghis Khan.
