Shanghai Tango
Describes how China's foremost male ballet dancer (and colonel in the People's Army) underwent China's first sex-change operation and became the Shanghai Ballet's prima ballerina. This memoir presents a personal and inspiring account of growing up in a body that feels alien and of braving pioneering surgery in communist China.
