Fried Eggs with Chopsticks: One Woman's Hilarious Adventure into a Country and a Culture Not Her Own 1st Printing edition

Polly Evans?s itinerary for China was simple: travel by luxurious high-speed train and long-distance bus, glide along the Grand Canal and hike up scenic mountains. Instead, the linguistically impaired adventurer found herself on a primitive sleeper-minibus where sleep was out of the question; perched atop a tiny mule on a remote mountain pass; and attempting a dubious ferry ride down the Yangtze River. Polly was getting to know China in a way she?d never expected?and would never, ever forget.

From battling six-year-olds in kung-fu class to discovering Starbucks in Hangzhou, Polly relives her Asian adventure with humor, enthusiasm, frustration, and determination. Whether she?s viewing the embalmed cadaver of Chairman Mao or drinking yak-butter tea, this is Polly?s eye-opening account of a culture torn between stunning modern architecture and often bizarre ancient mysteries?and of her attempt to solve the ultimate gastronomic conundrum: how exactly does one eat a soft-fried egg with chopsticks
