River Town, .every Chinese student should read
River Town, .every Chinese student should readCurrently, I’m reading this book River Town. I strongly recommend it to every one who loves China and our mother river Yangtz . I got it in the library of the University. I’ve fallen for it, deeply. coz I’m from Chongqing, and Fuling is the River Town where Peter used to work and where I used to work. So far I’ve been impressed by Peter's words. There’re two quotes that I’d never forget: 'But we should not give up eating for fear of choking' 'Every time i walked through the half-built complex I saw shops full of ex-peasants, playing mah-jongg and smoking Magnificent Sound Cigarettes, waiting patiently for the day when the flood would drive their new neighbours up from the river's banks' I’m about to finish, and I think it's good for every Chinese to read it, to realize, and reflect on our country, our government and ourselves.
