Title: Still Applicable
Review: This was the first book that I ever read by Paul Theroux. Since then I have taken every possible opportunity to read each of his works. I think that many may be set off by his ego and attitude but in reading other books of his it seems to me that alot of his writing is double-edged. You can follow his life through his marriage and divorce and his times with VS Naipaul. Being a voracious reader of anything to do with China and having lived there on and off, I find his book to be an objective view of CHina. WIth many people writing travel stories about what they think the "real" China is these days, it is good to see behind the facade most travellers experience when they travel to China. I recommend this book and all of Paul Theroux's travel books.
