I think one of the reasons my book was well received in the West was that I smashed many of the common stereotypes that people have about China. I wrote about a bunch of real people instead of trying to please Westerners by playing to their misconceptions and stereotypes.
我覺得自己的書在西方受歡迎的原因之一，就是我打破了一般人對中國的刻板印象，描寫的是一群活生生的人，而不是迎合西方口味而營造的刻板人物。
