All the works contained in this book are prize-winning "new urban fiction" stories selected by Shanghai Wave, a literary and life magazine followed the style of New Yorker for Chinese whitecollars, in recent two years.
Reading these unique and vivid stories, we can feel that these office workers, no matter where they are, at home or in office, in a bar or a cafe, have inner conflict under a placid countenance. Their pains and struggle are beyond many people's imagination and their pursuit of success and true love is not well understood and accepted. The life of urban white-collars is as colorful as is their inner world. This perhaps is the main feature of today's Chinese city life.
