Second, I suggest Mao's Last Dancer by Li Cunxin. I am still in awe of this book.
What is grief, if not love persevering?
Grief is just love with no place to go.

I'm a big memoir/autobiography reader, though my tastes run in odd directions. Medical/neurological disorders mostly, but anything that catches my interest.
I'm really looking forward to reading A Long Way Home by Saroo Brierley.

I've seen the movie A Beautiful Mind if you have seen it would you say the movie or book is better?dhwanis wrote:A beautiful mind by Sylvia Nasar is an interesting look into the life and the illness of Dr John Nash, the genius behind the famous Nash equilibrium and many more abstract mathematical concepts, and his descend and subtle recovery from schizophrenia.
