This club enjoyed the reference to literature and appreciated the freedoms that we have to enjoy reading.
The re-education process in the early 70's was not something that many were familiar with and it was a large part of the discussion. Very good meeting and good book.

We digressed into Chinese politics quite a bit, but found the book interesting as well.

I book was slow moving and pointless. A waste of time reading it. Only positive was the last paragraph.
