He is white, but he also holds a Chinese passport. And he is also gay.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGrowing up during the 1970s on his family's farm in Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe), Peter was swiftly introduced to a harsh world in which friends and relatives were murdered in ambushes-and the line between blacks and whites was drawn in blood.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs travel bans and UN sanctions caused a deepening chasm between his country and the rest of the world, Peter struggled with his identity as a white Rhodesian and later in life, when living in London, he nurtured his skills as a photographer-and finally found the courage to come out as gay.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNow a twenty-year resident of Hong Kong and an official Chinese national, Peter is arguably the only white, gay, African man in China. But his wildly entertaining anecdotes delve much deeper than that superficial-yet admittedly fascinating-label. These stories, based largely on Peter's childhood diary entries, offer insight into the universal human experience: from tragedies and triumphs to catastrophes and, perhaps most importantly, joy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Peter Wood\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1518830730\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781518830730\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/17\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 324\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.74lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.25w x 0.68d","brand":"Peter Wood","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43979882234111,"sku":"9781518830730","price":12.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_f1adee48-4b66-4abe-a7e0-6c7b2e1966e6.jpg?v=1683247271","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/mud-between-your-toes-peter-wood-9781518830730","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
