The stories of expatriates in Hong Kong – the most dynamic and diverse city in Asia – come to life in this book. Why did they come? Why do they stay? How did Hong Kong change them and their worldview? What did they gain and what did they lose? Human beings are on the move, driven by globalisation, political persecution, love or simple curiosity; and this global flow defines the age in which we live.
