A review by brynebo
The Man from Beijing by Henning Mankell

2.0

I had two major problems with this book. One, I did not connect with the main character (nor any other character for that matter). Two, it had a hefty measure of both history and politics, neither of which interest me much more than watching paint dry. As Mankell's Wallander series is a highly touted favorite of a good family friend, I shall try again, but I do hope to find an affable protagonist and some pizzazz in the plot.
