I got this from the express shelf and it was very much touch and go whether I could finish it in the 7 days + 7 renewal days (but I did it - yay me ;->). At 100+ pages too long, I nonetheless appreciated discovering some Chinese history from an individual family's perspective. I was surprised in the acknowledgement pages that some people were still afraid of being recognized as contributing but then it dawned on me that this was an aftermath of the history related in the story itself - that those who stood up when it seemed safe during the 1989 Tiananmen Square student uprisings being victimized in the quick aftermath.
