  • good and bad points of communism

    When I received this book, I thought goodness me, it's War and Peace, I will never get through it, but it is a great insight into China . its customs, misguided teachings of western life, and Mao's failings. especially in regard to making steel with no regard to keeping other factors in play e.g. agriculture, (hence the famine) Still reading it, should finish it in another 2 weeks.

  • Understanding Chinese culture - prepare to be shocked

    Incredible generational journey through China's more recent history. As each page turns, an understanding of Chinese culture and history awaits the reader, Be prepared to be shocked and, for most of us, go on to celebrate that our immediate generations did not suffer the excesses on which the world's would-be dominant nation is founded. That the humanity of the Chinese individual manages to shine through the political and cultural bleakness, makes for an inspirational read.

  • Quite a “page-turner.

    Written thirty years ago. Can’t believe I’ve not read it before ! Revelatory...That this regime controlled the population to such a degree is still difficult to comprehend. Harrowing detail, but the writing style made it easy to read.
