book

Just finished a very captivating book. I never thought I would enjoy it or even bother with it. If I were to have energy to read anything other than IT technical, biz, tax or news, I would read very light hearted brainless novel like the Clive Cussler's or the Bourne series. Since iron-wife gave me the book to read, I better read it before being beaten up. Just kidding.

The book, Mao's Last Dancer, was very enjoyable. It was a memoir of Chinese defected Ballet dancer now living in Australia with his family. The story and timeline revealed the hardship during the C0Mm!e Revolution, the determination of survival to be the best and the heart-breaking family separation from the defection. I could not put this book down after I started reading on the flight from YQR to MSP 3 days ago. Last night, I finished the entire book.
