1 comments about Paint the Yellow Tiger.
  1. This is a great book for an art lover to read. It is not only because the author Mr. Dong has a tremendus reputation in the watercolor world but also his beautiful art works with familiar city scenes. Reading this book makes you feel that you have been traveling with this great artist as a long time friend, bringing you into his life. from a young boy who like to paint the Yellow Tiger until he becomes a famous artist. Whether this book serve as an autobiography or a story book, the author put most of his art skills and philosophy into it. Such as, all his human figures are facing the same direction and think the same things, He always seems to put the oriental Yin-Yan rule into his painting. I also enjoy his soft color, the balance of shape and light and the composition for which he has become so famous.

2 comments about The Rants, Raves and Thoughts of Mao Zedong: The Dictator in His Own Words and Those of Others (The Rants, Raves and Thoughts).
  1. If you love Mao, you'll love this book! Choi has seemed to capture the beauty and brilliance that is the Chairman. His personality and charisma is brought to life in living color in this charming little edition. Two thumbs up!!


  2. wow, after i ordered this book, i started to have second thoughts, but i decided to risk it; if i didn't enjoy it, i knew some of the new additions to my history class could use it. but when i recieved it, i was impressed--paul choi and his team must have worked pretty hard to look for some of these quotations (the only problem with this book is its use of the word "quote" instead of "quotation"). but overall, i think this book is great and i'm planning to order more from the series.

1 comments about Letters Between Two: Correspondence Between Lu Xun and Xu Guangping.
  1. One of modern China's most moving love stories can be read between the lines of Letters Between Two, the correspondence between Lu Xun, China's greatest modern writer, and Xu Guangping, who lived with him from 1927 to the end of his life in 1936. Dating from 1925 to 1929, the letters were editied by Lu Xun and first published in 1933. Readers can trace in them the gradual change in their relationship: from student and teacher, they became lovers uncertain of their future together, and then a couple expecting their first child. The letter also reveal their thoughts on literature, education, politics and their outlook on life. -- from book's back cover
