Customer Reviews of Flying High Out of A Tibetan Valley
Flying High out of a Tibetan Valley Many people in the US take democracy for granted. They never give a thought about it. Or they think democrary is nothing important. However, they can freely criticize the US government without any fear. They don't realize that they have been enjoying democracy.
Liming knows how important democracy is. As she was growing up during the Cultural Revolution in China, even a joke might put you in jail. Chinese people at that time had no freedom of speech. If you criticized the government, you would be killed or get a life sentence.
China has changed a lot since Mao died. But still, people in China today do not have the freedom of speech that Americans have.
Flying High out of a Tibetan Valley is a great book. After you read it, you will realize the true meanings of freedom and democracy.
Flying High out of a Tibetan Valley
I read this book after returning from a China trip. This author wrote from her heart, in stunningly simple prose that actually made her words feel like a conversation between the author and the reader. The more I read, the more I wanted to meet and know her. To find out more about this person who, coming out of extremely adverse conditions, pulled herself up to the extent that she succeeded in breaking free of the bondage of her people into a free society. Her book is a revelation. I do so admire her fortitude and dedication to rising above the suffocating circumstances within which her life was formed. I lived in freedom all of my life and knowing what she went through makes me very thankful that God placed me where he did, when he did. Thank you, Liming, for sharing with us the hardship of your life and the continued, unending love for your China!!
It's True to Life
I am a Chinese and I experienced the Great Leap Forward and the Cultural Revolution. Flying High Out of a Tibetan Valley is a wonderful book because it's true to life. Any Westerners who want to know real China in the past and today should read this book.
