    <body><![CDATA[After a rather slow start, the story picked up and didn't quit until the dramatic ending. Honest characterizations; historically interesting; minimally preachy. I learned much about events which occurred during my own lifetime but of which I had little information. A solid 4. <br/><br/>If you like this book, do yourself a favor and read the memoir _Life and Death in Shanghai_ by Nien Cheng, who survived Mao's Cultural Revolution.]]></body>
