Big Brother China: Gege Zhongguo

Subasree Mohan was elated when she learned that her family would be moving out of India; she was nonplussed when she knew that their next destination would be China. The political scenario and the iron curtain around China always left doubts about the country. This book by Subasree Mohan transforms that thinking. She makes the reader live through the moments captured during her stay in China. This is not a travelogue but a firsthand experience of Chinese culture and grandeur of a fellow Asian who lived in China for several years. At the end of this book, one cannot stop admiring China as she walks the reader through the various positive aspects of the Chinese culture. To quote what she says in her last line of the book, let us salute Big Brother China the Superpower.
