In our next session we will travel a bit further and discuss "China in Ten Words" by the Chinese writer Yu Hua.

Author Yu Hua presents ten essays based on the ten words he feels best sum up the state of his country, and his own life experience.

Wall Street Journal:
"Captures the heart of the Chinese people in an intimate, profound and often disturbing way. If you think you know China, you will be challenged to think again. If you don't know China, you will be introduced to a country that is unlike anything you have heard from travellers or read about in the news."

Format: Introductions - Book Discussion - Unstructured/Socializing
