Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Hilarious because it's (mostly) accurate!
Review: I bought this book while I was living in Hong Kong, and I read it again and again ... often to and from work while on public transport. I would look around me at the people surrounding me and then chuckle. It just described Chinese society in such a way that you both found it hilarious and informative at the same time. I think the more you know about Chinese societies, the funnier you will find this book. Unfortunately I've now lost my copy because I lent it to a Chinese friend who found it so funny and interesting, that she's never given it back. If you're looking for a book to reinforce your prejudices though, I suggest you look elsewhere ... it's not that kind of book.
