Book Reviews of Red China Blues: My Long March From Mao to Now

Book Review: A 'must read' for anyone interested in China.
Summary: 5 Stars

This book gives an insight into the mentality of an idealistic and enthusiasic Red Guard who later can see the mistakes made by communism. A fantasic read and really brought alive my journey through China's not-so-distant past. It helped me gain an understanding of their culture better than any book on China, I had read before. Jan is an author who writes vividly and passionately about her time as a Red guard and her life afterwards living in the 'new' China.
