4.0 out of 5 stars
Moving and artistic rendering of a dramatic time in Taiwan,
By Carno Polo "adventure traveler" (Rome, Italy) - See all my reviews
This review is from: A City of Sadness (Paperback)
This is a moving love story that serves as a conduit to illustrate the period right after WW II in Taiwan, when the Japanese colonial administration was replaced by the ruthless and corrupt rule of Chen Yi, a mainland administrator for Chiang Kai-shek. The infamous episodes of 2/28/47 are the background against which the story is set.Taiwan later became an extraordinary success story and today it is a thriving democracy, but the end of Japanese colonial rule did not start under the best auspices... |
