Posted: November 6th, 2012 | No Comments »

Regular readers will know that I liked Kitto’s book, China Cuckoo, on Moganshan and I know he likes to talk about the former hill resort and the old days when Shanghailanders retreated there in the hot summers….

Wednesday, November 7 7:30pm 
China Cuckoo – in conversation with Mark Kitto
Beijing Bookworm
20/30rmb 

Mark Kitto joins us to discuss his work, writing life and that Prospect article. In his 2009 memoir, China Cuckoo, Kitto details his rise to ‘mini media mogul in Shanghai, the dramatic end of that business, and then his retreat on Moganshan where he created a restored community and home. Join us to hear Kitto discuss the book and more.
