This was well-written and full of thought-provoking stuff, but I wasn’t expecting it to be as sinister as it was. It had spooky vibes to match The Picture of Dorian Grey. Pretty cool, worth reading.

This was fantastic! I wasn’t expecting particularly great things from it for some reason, perhaps because of what I’ve made of the other books in the Vintage Mini Moderns box set, but this was thought provoking and enlightening, offering me a different perspective on the society that I live in.
This bookis basically Guo’s first impressions afterarriving in the UK from communist China,and it’s all written in her vernacular to echo the way that she spoke. I’d recommend giving this a read if you can.
