Marrying Buddha

"Coco, a successful young female novelist, has left her home in Shanghai to live in New York. In this new world she meets Muju, half-Italian, half-Japanese - the yang to Coco's yin. The two find mutual passion, experimenting and exploring their deepest desires. Then into Coco's life strolls a glamorous, wealthy and impossibly urbane New Yorker, an infuriating character who causes havoc in Coco's relationship with Muju. Coco flies back to China, to the tiny temple-studded island of Putuo, and for a time her spirit is restored - but a deeper dilemma awaits when the two men make their reappearance." "Marrying Buddha is the continuation of Wei Hui's semi-autobiographical story that began with Shanghai Baby, the book that was banned in China and went on to become an international bestseller."--BOOK JACKET.
