This graphic novel follows the shortcomings of foreign teachers and outsiders (lao wai) attempting to live and work in mainland China. An English teacher overstays his visa, yet sticks to the mainland in stubborn pursuit of a young, helpful student. ...A recent graduate arrives in Cathay with delusions of easy wealth, yet faces the reality of a Chinese instant upper class. ...A father taking his family on vacation sets up an adventurous cultural experience only to suffer his wife's constant derision and his own son's disappearance. All of the previous occurs amongst a shirtless mass of Chinese bystanders, eavesdroppers and opportunists. So, Bye Bye Lao Wai
