Not only was it well-received, but it has become something of a favorite. By her reckoning, the writing is readable, meaningful, and engaging, and the sense of the place is deeply conveyed. She was overjoyed to have these stories to refer to—stories that she said took her back to the days and nights of Taiwan and the many lovely people and things that she misses there.After hearing this, I did some reading as well, and even as an outsider, I found that it compares well with much contemporary travel writing. The place is illuminated in little vignettes, each of which is artfully and subtly constructed. In some ways, they remind me of Zen Koans, though this will surely make actual practitioners cringe. It's not meant to be a comparison at the literal level, however—more at the instinctive one.In short, it's a nice read, whether you've been there or not, and the stories will enrich the reader as a human being and citizen of the world in the way that the best works of literature do.
I've always loved all things Asian. I found this book fascinating. I loved the photos in it. The stories about the authors interactions with the people were so very personal. In no way did this author seem to be a "fish out of water". He was so comfortable as he traveled and reported, it made me comfortable too. I almost, almost got the courage to go there myself.
I thought that this book would be quite good, given the number of five star reviews it received by other Amazon.com users. Instead, I found it mediocre. The humor displayed by the author is interesting, certainly, but for those who really wish to learn anything deep about Taiwan and its people, this is not the book to look to. However, if you simply wish to read a mildly entertaining book, then this book would be fine.
Very (with emphasis on very) light reading on Taiwan. It's sort of your typical English teacher overseas who morphs into a writer (yeah, speaking from experience at this end) tale of the fun and weirdness of an Asian culture. I was shocked at how awful some of the glutenous food seemed. My image of Taiwanese/Chinese dishes was they'd be at least in the same Japanese/Korean ballpark. After reading this I'm kind if leery to visit given a lot of this stuff seems third division Asian. This really can't be so, can it?Anyway, wanted more and maybe more of a "book" than a series of very very short essays. Enjoyable but I guess leaving your audience wanting more is better than overexplaining and droning on.
I am a Taiwanese who grew up in the States. This book is so good. It points out many, if not all, of the complex cultural dilemma/paradox and people's confusing behavior in Taiwan. But this is not for you if you are not culturally aware enough or if you only want to know how to survive in Taiwan because you are flying there in 1 week.I love the short stories on people (based on real stories) - the local Mahjong legend whose own little shop was eye-balled by the mafia, the Betel Nut girl who fantasized that white men are good people, etc.Something about the book made me feel that it could have been better. So I am giving it a 4. But since it is only $12, I'd definitely recommend everyone to purchase it, including my fellow Taiwanese.
Joshua Samuel Brown is the Mahatma Gandhi of restaurant criticism, the Rudyard Kipling of professional boxing, the Lance Armstrong of economic planning. His voice shines in this magnificent exposition of over a decade of perplexing customs and offensive odors.Proud and misunderstood like Taiwan itself, Mr. Brown regales us with tales of Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek, betel nuts, and how to avoid jail time by impersonating a mormon.This is a book to be read aloud by the fireside while snacking on extremely sour dried fruits and squid jerky.
What a thrill, what a depth of knowledge crammed in this tiny book...the understanding the author shows for this land and it's people overwhelms me...and I thought I like Chinese food before I read this book...oh my...who knew???My only complaint is the scant bulk of this tome...not weighty enough to keep a broken window open...but cheap enough to mail to all the relatives...Buy this book,Joshua's Mother
I thought that I had a good understanding of Eastern culture. I was wrong. Where was Mr. Brown when we were making ill-fated decisions like the bombing of Cambodia?Anyway, this book is so funny that I think that I've soiled myself again.
