Paperback. Condition: Good. Jin Xing is a former prima ballerina, one of the brightest stars of the Shanghai Ballet. But her journey to international fame has been fraught with difficulty, because Jin Xing was born a man. From an early age she was uncomfortable with her gender - back then, she was a young boy dreaming of becoming a ballerina and a princess. Unable to understand or put words to her feelings, she immersed herself in ballet dancing, her first love. Aged 9, she joined the People's Liberation Army, where she received both dance and military training and attained the rank of colonel. The curtains opened on a new act in her life when, aged 19, she received a scholarship to study dance in New York. It was there that she discovered for the first time that it was feasible to change sex. In an instant, what had been the province of dreams became a real possibility. She took the courageous decision to return to China to face the authorities, quit the army, and confront the world with her decision to become a woman. As dramatic, graceful and deeply felt as a pas de deux,Shanghai Tango is a deeply personal and inspiring account of growing up in a body that feels alien and of braving pioneering surgery in communist China. The book has been read but remains in clean condition. All pages are intact and the cover is intact. Some minor wear to the spine.

gebunden. Condition: Neu. 224 S. Soldat und Tänzerin: Die einzigartig faszinierende Lebensgeschichte von Jin Xing 1967 kommt Jin Xing als Sohn koreanischer Eltern in der Mandschurei zur Welt. Mit neun Jahren beginnt seine beispiellose Karriere, als Jin Xing seine Eltern überredet, einer Tanzausbildung beim chinesischen Militär zuzustimmen. Das Programm ist hart, neben klassischem Ballett und Volkstanz lernt der kleine Junge Gewehre zu reinigen und Handgranaten zu werfen. Doch bereits als Kind spürt Jin Xing, dass sein Körper die falsche Hülle ist, der Tanz jedoch sein Weg, seine Seele auszudrücken. Als berühmter chinesischer Tänzer geht er nach New York, wo er bei den Stars des Modern Dance studiert und in die glitzernde Welt des Westens eintaucht. In ihm wächst das Bewusstsein für seine Sexualität - und die Gewissheit, seinem Körper das Geschlecht zu geben, das er in sich spürt. Jin Xing kehrt nach China zurück. Und er wird wiedergeboren, als Frau. Sprache: Deutsch Gewicht in Gramm: 550.
