An American Bum in China The bumblingly brilliant escapades of expatriate Matthew Evans

Tom Carter

Book - 2019

Down on his luck and disabled, cancer survivor Matthew Evans had nothing to lose by fleeing the farmsteads of Muscatine, Iowa, at age 21 to pursue his Chinese Dream. With all the makings of a classic folk tale, An American Bum in China chronicles how his curiosity became an epic five-year adventure that would find him homeless, stateless, posing as a professor, imprisoned, deported, and caught in the middle of the 2014 Hong Kong protests.--Publisher description.
