Mao’s remains removed from view

Mao’s remains removed from view 

Well, he’s been dead for as long as I’ve been alive, so I expect he’s well over due for a wash and brush up.

Mao was mad

Yep, that seems to be a fair assumption and one made by the author of the following post who bases his argument on MacFarquhar and Schoenhals’ book (the one I’ve just started reading).

Mao’s Cultural Revolution: Fact is stranger than fiction « AMPONTAN

I don’t think there are many benefits from reading a review before the book’s been read (least not for me – I’m easily led!), so I haven’t taken a look yet at the link to Nathan’s review (as mentioned by ampontan).  Will save that one for later.
