The Gap in the Letter C
Fiction. Kate Small's writing mesmerizes; her talent is so great it makes my brain rattle with envy and admiration.

Rather, he portrays them as a people whose communist background and standing in China's northern borderlands has informed their political efforts to harness or confront Chinese nationalistic and political hegemony. Breaking new ground in the study of Chinese and Mongol history and ethnicity, the author offers a fresh interpretation of China viewed from the perspective of its peripheries, and of minority nationalities...
