This song features in one of the stories "The Good Women Of China" I think it was a woman who waited 45 years for the man she loved, in vain.

25...? You saying he was indecisive or something, everton? To be fair it was just 24...! ;-)
You're right Swede (whoopsies).
Cath as small boy I was in and out of hospital, so the first story was very poignant to me as hospital was the only place I could get some peace and quiet so therefore was'nt so bad.
I liked the analogy that women are like sponge cakes, I've translated that to English as saying that women are like black puddings, LOL.
She's done another book "China Witness" which is in a similar vein (slightly better I feel) you can see how she has matured as a writer in it.
Of course that may be because I'm a man and it focussed less on sex and things and more to do with social climate of post revolutionary China.
