Portrait of a Thief
by Grace D. Li
Imagine 5 incredible characters trying to plan a heist of Chinese art pieces all over the world. What a great idea.
Then also imagine the story not really going anywhere and being stuck on the 5 trying to find their identity. Are we American? Are we Chinese? Maybe this heist will change our future and the way we feel about belonging? Maybe this heist can make our parents proud of us.
I am disappointed that the story didn’t really develop. No action, no excitement, just individual conflicts. Very repetitive..just a bit of a let down
