But deep inside Kowloon Walled City, there isn’t a single proper streetlamp. Zhou Quan squats in a cramped stairwell, clutching half a stale pineapple bun and washing it down with a bottle of flat Vita Soy for dinner. The corridor reeks of a mixture of damp, mold, and the bitter Chinese herbs simmering next door. Together, these smells make up the air he has known for eighteen years, so famili 1Reads—Score—Shelves

It's fast-paced and unrefined, and the more you read, the more you read it. If you're not a book reader, you can give it a try.
