Comments on: Prisoner of the State: The Secret Journal of Premier Zhao Ziyang http://wordlily.com/2009/12/18/prisoner-of-the-state-by-zhao-ziyang/ For the love of language (and some fiber arts, too) Sun, 20 May 2012 23:22:52 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: Rebecca http://wordlily.com/2009/12/18/prisoner-of-the-state-by-zhao-ziyang/#comment-4537 Sat, 19 Dec 2009 06:07:29 +0000 http://wordlily.wordpress.com/?p=2285#comment-4537 This sounds like a pretty informative book. That you would have liked to see more cultural and religious elements to the story means I probably will too. Politics can be a pretty tough read for me if there isn’t a lot of other stuff to help me propel through the pages.

At any rate, I had not heard about Amy’s project of reading the Newsweek Books of Our Times. I’m off to see if I can possibly fit this reading into my already overloaded reading schedule.

I’m glad to hear it’s more conversational than academic, as I like to learn more about history without being bored. (I went through enough of that in college!) Thanks for the review.
