When author Alexandra Khoo landed at the Shanghai Pudong International Airport in the fall of 2007, nothing could have prepared her for the culture shock of living in China. In Living in Shanghai, she narrates the experiences of living in the most cosmopolitan city in China, a place she came to know when her husband accepted a job assignment in this metropolis of twenty-three million people. As an overseas ethnic Chinese woman fluent in both English and Mandarin, Khoo tells about her in-depth contact with the local people and provides insight into navigating the daily issues commonly facing expatriates in Shanghai, including housing, dining out, shopping, currency, religion, social interaction, transportation, medical care, and communication. Including many photos, Living in Shanghai paints a broad picture of what it was like living in a large country that is developing at a breakneck pace. Khoo provides practical advice and useful directions for adjusting to life in Shanghai.

"The Twists and Turns of Living in Shanghai" consist of two and a half years (January 2017 to June 2019) in China's largest city. We'll encounter the trials and tribulations (both conventional and unconventional), which textbooks and colleges don't prepare us to wrestle. In fact, there's more Yang (chaos) compared to Yin (order). If stories about quitting a job to experience wanderlust or preaching the perks of living abroad are what you're craving, well, you won't find it here. Now if reading stuff that makes eyebrows raise, to say, "What the f***?" and causes some chuckles along the way is your cup of tea, then I welcome you to taste my batch. We'll explore the other side of the coin: the things we don't see or hear about on social media posts. In this book, it's the twists and turns of living overseas with twenty-four million people in Shanghai, China.

Shanghai is the most modern and dynamic city in China. In preparation for hosting the World Expo 2010, a World's Fair in the grand tradition of international fairs and expositions, the megalopolis embarked on an overhaul to transform itself from the "Pearl of the Orient" into the "City of the Future." Here, the world's tallest buildings soar, the planet's longest bridges span toxic waterways, and the fastest train on earth rockets the city from its storied past toward a future that seems, by turns, either as bright or as hideous as the lights that set the hazy sky aglow each night. At a time when interest in China has seen a sharp increase that shows no signs of abating, Shanghai places China's development and its effects on the world into context by explaining how the country arrived where it is today and why it is building massive infrastructure projects with tremendous social and environmental impact. Shanghai provides an intimate look inside a mega-city heaving with change and offers essential insight into the challenges of remaining human in an increasingly urbanized world.
