520    'China Cuckoo' is the charming true story of a witty and 
       eccentric sinophile Englishman and his China tree-change, 
       narrated by the author. Mark Kitto was the first westerner
       to return and live in Moganshan, a dilapidated, beautiful 
       Chinese mountain village, since the original foreign 
       residents left in 1949. In millennial Shanghai, Kitto was 
       the creator of the 'That's' city magazine series, the most
       popular and profitable English language publications in 
       China since the 'North China Daily News', the paper of 
       record of concession-era Shanghai. The UK Financial Times 
       described him as a 'mini media mogul'. In 2004 he suffered
       the same fate as the man who built the 'Daily News'. He 
       lost everything to the Communist Party. Rejecting the 
       corporate world and the glamour of Shanghai, Mark 
       persuaded his urbane Chinese wife to make Moganshan their 
       permanent home. With their two small children they took 
       the bold step of moving their lives to the isolated 
       village, taking over an old brothel to start a western 
       style cafe. In the process the author uncovered the 
       history of the mountain retreat; its 'discovery' and 
       development by missionaries, its popularity with 
       celebrities, drug dealers (Chinese and foreign), and its 
       decay under the Communist regime. Funny, touching and 
       inspiring, 'China Cuckoo' is a rare and intimate portrait 
       of life in rural China through the eyes of one man who has
       survived house-fires, typhoons, corruption and cultural 
       clashes. It is an illustration of past and present China's
       relations with foreigners and it describes, in the words 
       of one who has suffered and benefited from both, the risks
       and rewards of going 'China Cuckoo'. Mark Kitto has also 
       published 'That's China, how a British entrepreneur took 
       on the Chinese propaganda machine', the full story of his 
       China publishing career, now available as an audiobook. 
       Mark Kitto currently lives in the UK where he is an actor,
       narrator and editor.
