Learning How to Love China

by Daniel Kintai Woo

Learning How to Love China tells the story of a young factory worker in a city near Shanghai. She tries to set down some of the weight she carries for her work and family. It's a tale of her droning daily life in our contemporary world of global economies, many run by authoritarian power structures. The book shows us the consequences of unbridled accumulation and the systemic exploitation of certain groups. And it asks the question, are we all to blame somehow?

It's difficult to rate this little book. I liked it and got caught up in Little Comrade's trials and tribulations and found it's tongue in cheek style amusing as it quietly mocks the Chinese citizens who dream of Canada as a "better place" than China, and who shirk their family responsibilities, thinking only of themselves and not the betterment of the State. Very interesting reading!
