So happy to see two of my favorite authors (Junot Diaz and Peter Hessler) coming to Shanghai for the literary festival in March!

    Hi Maggie, I think Tony's getting a bit old. Too bad. I've been trying to get in to "Light Years", an anaysis of this guys relationship with some folks from the Plaeadies(sp). It seems quite believable. This cute little ol hippy chick wanted me to read it, I aim to please.

    I think I gave it 3 stars for "liking it". I love Atwood, in general, and I've heard lots of people who "LOVED it" so go for it, I say!

    Hi! Yes, I'm really enjoying it! They're about 15 now but not hobbling in the mountains yet! I bet you have overloaded on miserable Chinese lives! I have Margaret Atwood's new book coming on an inter-library loan.

    You have that steel lined German psyche...I couldn't handle the animals devouring each other...however, I didn't seem to have a problem with the poor turtle in the soup.

    great to be hanging out here with you.

    You're so emotive...alcohol won't help...maybe some yak butter tea, quite invigorating

    Hey Maggie. I enjoyed life of Pi but I had to close my eyes and skip several pages during the survival of the fittest scenes of animals eating each other.

    Did you like it?
