A note to the reader: This article is written in a Chinese genre called duhougan [read-after-feeling], loosely translatable as 'thoughts and feelings after reading'. As the words suggest, the aim is not to offer a dispassionate assessment so much as to express the personal reactions of an informed reader. (For a standard Western type-review, see Matisoff (1996) and others).
