In her newly released novel, That Man In Our Lives, Xu Xi expands the fictional universe of her earlier novels, locating New York as the perch to view the shifting balance of power between China and the U.S. “That Man In Our Lives is an ambitious, witty and generous novel, which also has enough mystery to keep even somebody with 20th-century tastes turning the pages. It also delivers an Asian perspective on the challenges and opportunities of globalisation, while exploring the loss of traditional ideas about the self, and what that loss means for authors and readers.” - The Asian Review of Books.
