Book Reviews of Journey of a Thousand Miles: My Story
Book Review: A Story of Success Obsession
Summary: 2 Stars
I really have mixed feelings about this book. It wasn't a pleasant read: a success-driven kid pushed to stardom by his maniac father. You can't help but feeling it's less about music than about success. It does unwittingly reflect the value orientation of modern-day Chinese society.Book Review: commerce vs. art
Summary: 2 Stars
Okay... Lang Lang is a phenomenon; Young, talented and entertaining. Be that as it may, wanting to be "Number One" is a reasonable pursuit for an athlete---NOT for an artist. It's a shallow aim, and speaks nary a word about vision, individual expression, or artistic integrity.
