benhem 's review for:
Mao's Last Dancer
by Li Cunxin
I found this book very fascinating. Mr. Cunxin has had quite a life and I am thankful he decided to share his experiences with everyone. Not knowing much about dance and only knowing the rudimentary basics about China under chairman Mao, I was quite enthralled. I would have liked a little more detail about Mr. Cunxin's experiences as the writing was fairly simple and 20 years went by extremely quickly. All in all though, it was a unique insight into the world of dance and the time period and situation in which Mr. Cunxin grew up. I am happy to have read it.
