Charles, 39, Shanghai
B) I came here to teach English in my early 20s and eventually moved into business, running a small import-export operation. I majored in Mandarin Chinese back in the U.S. and continued my language studies here. I’m now fluent in Chinese and my reading is just about perfect, I’m married to a local woman and have three kids who were all born and raised here. Granted, I haven’t got Chinese citizenship, as that would have involved me renouncing my American citizenship. I wasn’t prepared to do that as it would have caused me too many headaches, not least of which would have been having to get a visa every time I wanted to go back to visit family. But I have permanent residency in China and consider this my home. Despite all this, most Chinese people will always see me as an outsider.

Expressing Grief
In some cultures, extreme displays of grief are a way of demonstrating the strength of one’s feelings for the departed. However, historically, these outpourings of distress need not always come from the nearest and dearest of the deceased. For the ancient Romans, for example, hiring professional mourners was a common way of putting on a suitable display of public lamentation. These people were paid to shriek and even tear their hair out in a frenzy of grief. Interestingly, wailers were also hired for funerals in Victorian England, and professional mourners continue to ply their trade in parts of Africa, the Middle East and China to this day. Sometimes these professionals can actually add spice to an otherwise morbid occasion by singing or dancing.
