ahjmills's review against another edition
2.0
Not the most interesting of books and at times highly confusing, but I always like to read about China, and this book wasn't particularly long. Wouldn't read again, though. Balzac and the Little Chinese Seamstress, Sijie's debut novel, was much, much better.

I put it down for a month with 45 pages to go-- picked it up to finish and, shockingly, the last 45 pages were no better than the first 200+. Not for me, not for me. I found it absurd instead of funny, hard to follow, hard to be interested in, and just plain awful in places.

J'avoue été très déçue par ce livre... J'avais adoré Balzac et la Petite Tailleuse Chinoise mais Le Complexe de Di ne semble pas avoir été écrit par le même auteur. J'ai trouvé la lecture de ce livre particulièrement ennuyeuse et sans grand intérêt...
