Book Reviews of Shanghai Baby: A Novel
Book Review: 100% Chick Lit
Summary: 4 Stars
Wow, this is really targeted at the wrong market. If you want a "Bridget Jones Clone" with some more edge than most of that ilk, this is for you! If you're looking for actual insight into China from its younger writers, go read Wang Shuo and Hong Ying instead (they're cool)!One nitpick, though: why do so many modern writers write about writers (Wei Hui, Kate Christensen, etc.)? Can we please have some more vocational diversity? And Ibisarian, I agree with you about the cliche; Shanghai Baby would have been more original if the guys' races were any less stereotypical combination. Go read American Knees by Shawn Wong.
