Rating: 1
Summary: condescending claptrap
Comment: This guy is outrageously paternalistic and condescending. It should be entitled, Why I dont like contemporary Chinese folk, esp those who are either dissidents and/or not dissidents. (!)
I dont know why these essays are recollected, as they do not add up to a book, so Id recc you save you money on this one.
Rating: 5
Summary: Excellent Book
Comment: Using Chinese rock and roll, soap operas, books, comics, films, and karaoke, the Party's heroes and ideas are merchandised to the comrade in the street. China abounds in subteties and ironies.
Barme's analysis is well written and very relevant.
