Negative Positive
Title: By turns ghastly, silly, and without serious intellectual merit
Review: Madame Tu has an undeniably unusual perspective on issues, and her service to the disadvantaged in Hong Kong is a well known matter of local record. That said, most of her observations are either trite, without foundation, or politically and intellectually biased. A previous reviwer wondered why Madame Tu is no longer sought by the HK press - the reason is that her views are predictable, largely irrelevant, and not news worthy. A reader looking for a picture of colonial HK life would do better to read one of the many memoirs on the subject, or better watch Suzie Wong - the pictures at least do some justice. Unless one is merely seeking a source of questionable validation for preconcieved views of HK (the US?) - this is a waste of time and money.
Is the review positive or negative?
