George had never been outside his own hometown before. But that didn't stop him from dreaming. On Saturdays, when all the other boys were out at the park playing football, George was at the library gathering books, magazines, and articles. It didn't matter what place. Fiji. The Bahamas. The Virgin Islands. Guatemala. Peru. Nepal. He paid less attention to the names of the places than he did to the details of what life might be like there. He imagined walking down the backstreets and alleys of rural China, passing old hunched-over men, peasants carrying pails of manure, street vendors selling mysterious concoctions, and children squatting at the side of the road watching as the foreigner passed by.
