I love memoirs. I also love to read about China. And this is a good memoir about living through the Cultural Revolution in China. I like the love relationship that is explored in this book. I like reading about how confusing and confining the world was for so many during that time period in Chinese history. But I have to say, at times, I got bored with the writing-style in this book. It's pretty simplistic. So, overall I'd have to say: good content, weak writing.
