Typical China book talking about life from 1950-1990. Many other titles tell similar stories from the time.  The writer is a good memoirist and chooses a good theme to tie his memories.  Worth a read.

<< Si può dire che la Cina di oggi sia un paese con enormi disparità, è come se ci muovessimo in una realtà di luci rosse e sfarzo da una parte e macerie e rovine dall’altra. Per dirla altrimenti, è come se fossimo seduti in un teatro bizzarro dove, contemporaneamente, vanno in scena una commedia su una metà del palco e una tragedia sull’altra.>>

Her okuduğum kitapla hayranlık seviyem daha da artıyor. Kültür Devrimi dönemini bizzat yaşamış birinin anılarının arasında dolaşmak, Yu Hua ile uzun bir sohbete dalmak gibi bir deneyimdi. Kesinlikle çok sevdim.
