Böcker av Phillip C Young

In addition to the brighter side, there are always obscure and eccentric people and things in a city. This phenomenon is especially true of Los Angeles, the entertainment capital of the world, with beauty and ugliness, opportunities, and temptations. This book narrates stories of the people and events encountered by an Uber driver in Los Angeles. Through this driver's contacts and conversations with various people, this book reveals aspects of the nightlife in the City of Angels, revealing unknown lives in a presentation of human nature at multiple times and places, and at the same time, integrates the author's comparison and analysis of cultural differences between China and the United States. The book has various characters, including teenagers, adults, ordinary citizens, homeless people, and prostitutes. They have incredible stories, significant confrontations, and thought-provoking displays of human nature. Different individuals in each chapter bring out unique stories. These are described and narrated in detail to envision various forms of friendship, morality, and sexual relations. The author does not expose the dark side of life from the perspective of curiosity, nor has he worn tinted glasses to judge absurdity. It explores the diversity of human nature, desire, and the inevitability of their existence by presenting various forms of living and lifestyles. There is always ignorance and evil in society in an era of highly civilized science and technology. Life is full of opportunities, which are bound to be accompanied by temptation. It is real life.
