Reader comments
The author uses rich historical materials to demonstrate the complexity of that period. The description of the workers at the bottom of society in the book is also very realistic, reminding me of Xiangzi in "Camel Xiangzi". This book can not only increase knowledge, but also trigger thinking about social justice. It is worth reading!
