Reviews

"Han Han is a phenomenon of today's China who personifies a rapidly changing society." - Jonathan Fenby, author of Tiger Head, Snake Tails: China Today, How It Got There and Where It Is Heading "China's top blogger for his acumen, humor, and scathing take." - Booklist "Funny and controversial... his personality does shine through." - Library Journal "Han Han's large readership is the best evidence we have of a broad survival of common sense in China." - The New York Review of Books "Funny and shrewd.... Han Han has interesting things to say." - The New York Times Book Review "Han Han's writing on every topic combines charming storytelling, wise aphorisms, and serious analysis. This is a groundbreaking book for Anglophone readers, offering an insider's look into Chinese culture and politics." - Publishers Weekly "Evocative and funny... occasionally electrifying." - Wall Street Journal "China's most popular blogger.... His manicured, swaggering persona is a rebuke to the rumpled archetype of the Chinese intellectual, and owes equal debt to Kerouac and Timberlake." - The New Yorker
