A review by brynpemery
Kingdom of Characters: The Language Revolution That Made China Modern by Jing Tsu

adventurous informative medium-paced

5.0

As a librarian who speaks Chinese, this was pretty much perfect for my interests and I loved it. I do think a basic knowledge of 20th century Chinese history is helpful and if you listen to the audiobook, don’t miss the pdf for helpful visuals of characters and strokes.
