Do you remember how in the first edition of the Tajfuny Advent Calendar we took you with Comma Press on a trip to Tokyo with The Book of Tokyo? Then the book stole your hearts. This year, the publisher has expanded its collection of short stories with cities in the background to The Book of Shanghai.
So, we invite you on a literary journey to Shanghai – our guides will be ten contemporary writers born, living or simply associated with this city. We will read here stories from various genres – naturalistic and fantastic, romantic and futuristic dystopias. As seen in these texts, Shanghai is a huge city of bridges, parking lots and complicated thoroughfares, but also quite small – reduced to the nearest neighborhood, one street, favorite stall or cafe. Most of all, it is the background for the stories experienced by its inhabitants.
