Great Insight into Chinese culture

I found this book very good and very insightful into the minds of the average Chinese person. I highly recommend this book.

Best Chinese Novelist's Best Book

Jia Pingwa in his country, just like Faulkner in Mississippi. He knows the people, he loves the people and he writes the people. Read his book, you will know them.
