    比American Born Chinese深刻且悲怆很多的故事,作为一个美籍华人能对义和团、戏曲、三国、秦始皇等有这些认识,虽然不能说是深刻但是有个较宏观的历史观,实属不易了。在文末作者还加了一个辅助型阅读的list,是很好引导年轻读者接触这段历史的基石。说实话要不是碰见了很好的历史启蒙老师,自己对这段历史也不会很了解。听说自己祖上也是义和团一员,情感上有些联系。读过这本书后想对这个团体有很多了解。Bao的故事串联起来了那个时期的中国对很多事情的迷茫和愤恨,有些人一味求和苟活,有些人无知地反抗,有些人仇视包括被转化的华人在内的一切外国因素,有些人固守着对于阴阳的成见大肆宣扬迷信糟粕…历史或许把他们看作失智狂徒,也不过是因为结果论罢了,其中还是有很多悲剧英雄成分的2020-08-08
