Reviews
'Mao's seemingly ceaseless ability for honest and frank prose is one of this book's real strengths - Sunbathing in Siberia situates itself between two cultures at a time in which it is most necessary to do so, interrogating and exploring national identities. Insightful and hilarious, the memoir prompts the reader to re-evaluate their approach to the East' - New Welsh Review
