It is a huge progress for me to finish reading an English novel, I never do it before. Lullabies for little criminals is an interesting book which talk about a young life on the streets. When I first read this book I saw the difference between Western culture and Eastern culture. Because you know Chinese modern novelist they never write this type of story. A story of real and seamy society. It's forbidden and also unacceptable for government. OK, let's stop talking about policy. ^ ^
I enjoy the part of written review, because i can show my own opinion about this book, anything i want. From the presentation, I learned a lot, especially from the other groups. each of the novel was new for me.

ReplyDeletei agree with you, the difference between Western culture and Eastern culture. this story focus on youth criminals. through the story, i can know a lot about the life and the society in north america.
ReplyDeletefrom your group's presentation, i think it is a good book to read. as you say, i think it is kind of autobiography, the story is around a poor girl.
