I'm reading the book now--am about halfway through. I'll keep it, and renew it if I can, in case the validator needs any help. He/she can contact me offline. It's a very interesting book for what it decribes about peasant life under Mao's regime in the 60's and 70's, and what it's like to train for ballet as a very beginner, as well as what tells about Li's life. It's an autobiography and one feels like one really knows and empathasizes with the author.
