If you are even a little bit interested in the life of normal people living through the Mao dictatorship, this is a must read. It doesn’t go into detail about the failed policies of that era or the cruel repression, but it is more powerful for that. It is a slice of life story its ups and downs and a very engaging cast of characters. It is also hilarious at times.
C'est pas l'auteur, c'est le traducteur. Le livre original est en Chinois, et si tu veux une meilleure experience la traduction anglaise est bien superieure.
