This book is coming to you for the 2018 Birthday Rabck Group!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! :D
Due the wild but nosey nature of your book, I lured it out to you by telling it that you had the wildest parties on your side of the country. How could it resist?
Be sure to close and lock the door behind it! ;)

Thank you for sending this wishlist book for my birthday. What are the odds that the book arrived on the same day your card and other goodies arrived! I had so much fun going through everything you included in the envelop. Thank you so much for still thinking of me in your times of trouble. Ganbatte!
Loved this collection of short stories. Usually, with a short story collection, there are some weaker stories. But I enjoyed all the stories in this collection.
Congratulations on winning the Wonderful Family Sweepstakes. Sorry for taking so long to send. Hope you enjoy this collection of short stories. Happy reading!

Thank you for the book! :)
"Each of The Bridegroom's twelve stories--three of which have been selected for inclusion in The Best American Short Stories--takes us back to Muji City in contemporary China, the setting of Waiting. It is a world both exotic and disarmingly familiar, one in which Chinese men and women meet with small epiphanies and muted triumphs, leavening their lives of quiet desperation through subtle insubordination and sometimes crafty resolve."

I agree with mcsar, usually in a collection of short stories, I like some a lot more than others, but this time I liked them all.

WILD RELEASE NOTES:
The twelve stories capture a China in transition, moving from maoïsm towards a more open society. Very interesting.
