At first, I can’t really understand why there is such a person who wrote such an unbelievable book that goes against my normal knowledge of our Chinese culture and Chinese people. But after I read the book carefully, I was getting to know it and had a deeply thought of our ugly chronics we are faced with.
There is an obvious contrast between western culture and eastern culture. An American who wrote the book <
He went to many famous universities in the world to give lectures with the accompany of his wife, which also a famous writer.
In the book, he compared our Chinese culture as a big soy sauce jar, full of snobbism, full of relationship .full of ugly bureaucratic, full of fake mask...by using a humorous and ironic tone to criticize the ugly phenomena .It is worthy to be read.
You can be shocked by what you have read, at the same time you can have a clear acquaintance and understanding of the real world!
What I what to advise you is reading the book with a neutral view and having your own understanding!
Hmmm, this is very interesting. Care to recommend the book to me?
