In booming Shanghai, Mark Kitto hit the big time. "The Financial Times" called him a 'mini media mogul'. One weekend, Mark escapes to Moganshan, a dilapidated mountaintop village built by foreigners in the early 1900s as a summer retreat. It's a familiar story: Mark falls in love with the place and decides to restore one of the villas, as if he were in Tuscany or Provence. But here the familiarity ends. The process is full of the usual pitfalls - but multiplied to the nth degree, Chinese-style. And then, when he dramatically loses his business empire to the Communist Party, what began as a weekend getaway becomes much more: Mark moves his family up the mountain and makes Moganshan his home. The ex-tycoon has gone 'China Cuckoo'. Funny, touching and inspiring, Mark's story gives a very different view of China today - from someone who's chosen to stay.
