This is not the first book that I have read on "Cultural Revolution". What makes this book interesting is that it is written by a "professional writer" and through a series of short articles, the author described the happenings when she was sent to the farms to learn from the peasants.
The learning was never meant to be insightful because it usually involved a lot of political struggle, torture and punishment.
Yet, the author has managed to describe even the slightest insights in a somewhat humorous way. This is important because people have to learn to be positive.
At the time of writing, the economy is undergoing a tremendous turmoil and the overall business environment has become very tough. I used to call this "nuclear winter" but I also learn to be more positive so the current challenge can be described as a 6-month downturn and adjustment which is good for the future.
