4.0 out of 5 stars Very interesting reading., October 14, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Age of Wild Ghosts: Memory, Violence, and Place in Southwest China (Paperback)
I bought this book for a class, and found it very engrossing. Mueggler does an excellent job of his sharing deeply considered research, providing readers with a fascinating ethnography of a people experiencing the repercussions of truly traumatic events. Mueggler leaves it to each reader to decide for themselves how they feel about what he learned in Zhizuo, challenging us to consider how the ghosts and memories tormenting the villager might mirror our own experiences, perceptions, and rituals. I look forward to visiting the book again, and highly recommend it.
