a su traductor Wang, un veinteañero del interior que jamás había visto el mar, y nos conduce en su periplo hasta las orillas de una realidad aparentemente remota, pero inevitablemente inmediata. Nos asoma a lo inminente a través de Wang, un chico educado en los valores comunistas que descubre una China tan inesperada que le perturba devastadoramente. Desde la frontera con Corea del Sur hasta Vietnam, Los mares de Wang nos muestra la vida en la región China que está cambiando el mundo. Del legado alemán en la olímpica Qingdao a la desbritanización de Hong Kong; de los casinos de Macao a los canales de Suzhou; de los rascacielos de Shanghai a las playas de la Isla de los Mares del Sur. Más allá de la mera observación, Gabi Martínez se acerca a la gente, se sumerge en los ambientes, acepta la compañía de los sujetos más extravagantes, alterna los más variados medios de transporte, frecuenta casinos y playas, para ofrecer un libro sincero, inteligente y profundo que nos aboca a una intensa reflexión sobre los aspectos más sustanciales de nuestra vida individual y colectiva. Un viaje que explica dos Chinas. O cómo un país estalló ante Wang.The Backpacker
