bookreview: Liu’s Boule de Foudre/Ball Lightning, and Childhood Traumas Matter
I read this book in the French translation from the original (Mandarin?), which apparently had some differences from the English translation, unless I am mistaking that in my memory for the significant differences spoken of by reviewers with regard to the next book, The Three Body Problem, which begins the 3BP or TBP series. This book should definitely be considered the prequel to that more famous

| This is another very important book, which many people ought to read, but which hits too close to home in certain ways for me to finish reading. Maybe it's just that contemporary realistic is not my genre, but I cannot even finish reading this one, d ...more | |
“It is better to believe in men too rashly, and regret, than believe too meanly. Men could be more than they are, if they would try for it. He has shown them that.”

“People, Reacher was certain about. Dogs were different. People had freedom of choice. If a man or a woman ran snarling toward him, they did so because they chose to. They were asking for whatever they got. His response was their problem. But dogs were different. No free will. Easily misled. It raised an ethical problem. Shooting a dog because it had been induced to do something unwise was not the sort of thing Reacher wanted to do.”

“If you can control a man's thinking you do not have to worry about his action. When you determine what a man shall think you do not have to concern yourself about what he will do. If you make a man feel that he is inferior, you do not have to compel him to accept an inferior status, for he will seek it himself. If you make a man think that he is justly an outcast, you do not have to order him to the back door. He will go without being told; and if there is no back door, his very nature will demand one.”
