Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. A fascinating odyssey through Vancouvers diverse neighborhoods, revealing the hidden stories that have shaped Canadas most misunderstood cityVancouver journalist Christopher Cheung has spent most of his career chasing the stories that no one else was covering, taking readers beneath the sur…face of the city of glass to expose the beating, multicultural heart of a place that has too easily been characterized by multimillion-dollar condos and yoga pants. In 15 deeply human and well-researched stories, Very Vancouver tours the city to reveal how families, businesses, and individuals are just trying to make a home in this beautiful, and challenging, place of plurality. There are the families who were the first to mass-produce Canadian tofu and put beef balls in the earliest bowls of east-side pho. There is the diligent population of binners who scavenge alleyways for refundable cans and bottles. There is the roller-coaster story of how migration has shaped the kaleidoscopic menu with bear claws, banh mi, and tamales of the legendary late-night Duffins Donuts. And, of course, there is the mysterious Baklava Man, who sold his treats on downtown streets after a career as an outspoken politician in Syria led to his exile. Very Vancouver is a tribute to the citys diasporas and examines the inequalities and fractured histories that mark every backyard vegetable garden and ubiquitous Vancouver Special, the boxy and derided design that housed newcomers. Vancouver is renowned for its natural beauty, but its also a place built on a foundation of migration, colonization, the working poor, and families who woke up every morning hoping for better. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
