My Country and My People (BHT008)
Lin Yutang, one of the most well-known Chinese philosophers and writers in 1930's, lived mainly in the U.S since 1928. His many works represent an attempt to bridge the cultural gap between East and West. The first two books, "My Country and My People" (1935) and "The Importance of Living" (1937), written in English in a charming and witty style, brought him international fame. "My Country and My People" was hailed as "the truest, the most profound, the most important book yet written about China."
