I loved this book. It was very emotional and I found that I laughed and cried through the whole thing. I regretfully have to give it four stars though because I found the narrator to be a bit dull off the get-go, but got better as the story went on. Great overall though!!

I was pleasantly surprised by this book. It is taken from emails the author sent home during his year long experience as an English teacher in China. You get to know the author and his students and before long you can imagine yourself on the 503 bus or attending English Corner. A lovely book and well worth a listen!

I've only listened to about a third of the podcast but I feel that it should be retitled 'Letters from an Alternate Universe'. The descriptions of life in China and their way of life are so strange and humerous. Well worth the listening.

This is a great book. The naration is well produced and the story is wonderful. Told through Emails back home, it's like Peter is writing to you about his experiences in China. Lovely

I have visited China on business trips, through this podiobook I re-lived many interesting experiences. The reading is excellent and the story very engaging, I felt like I was there (except I could turn off my ipod and go home in America). Great if you want to know what it's like to be a China university student (from American view).
