More about the book
To be lazy and idle is unacceptable and anti-Confucian. The Chinese must always be seen to be doing something. Hilarious because it's (mostly) accurate! I bought this book while I was living in Hong Kong, and I read it again and again often to and from work while on public transport. I would look around me at the people surrounding me and then chuckle. It just described Chinese society in such a way that you found it hilarious and informative at the same time.'Reviewer from Sydney, Australia
