    A HORRENDOUS COMING OF AGE STORY IN THE THROES OF A TERRIBLE WAR
  

*by K***R on Reviewed in the United States on March 2, 2019*

I read this book because I recently watched the terrific film for a second time.  The film and book left me with a deep melancholy.  The book.is very detailed, and the reader may find himself or herself skipping over some of the details to move on the story line.  Well worth the reading and leaves a lasting impression.

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on December 27, 2014*

At totally engrossing look at WWII in China through the eyes of a young boy.  From an American perspective, accounts of the war usually start after the bombing of Pearl Harbor and rarely focus on battlefields of China, where the communists, KMT, and Japanese had been fighting since 1937.  This aspect of the novel gives an interesting window into colonial Shanghai, which had a Euro-American colony since the mid 19th century, an era that essentially ended with WWII but despite its relatively lengthy existence gets very little attention today.The protaganist's viewpoint can be difficult to grasp at times, but this is deliberate as the author is trying to convey the way in which a young boy struggles to understand the circumstances around him and how he orders his life accordingly.  The incredible amount of violence, suffering, and depravity he experiences is so far beyond the ken of a modern Westerner that it barely seems real that such a time and place actually existed.A must-read that truly expands one's horizons.

    A Must Have Book
  

*by J***H on Reviewed in the United States on March 9, 2021*

This is a beautiful book about an horrible experience. It’s the story about tenacity and adaption for survival of such a young person. Though I, and my children, read this  years ago I bought 4 copies; one for each of our libraries.
