This is a much-needed book, steering a middle course between mainland critics, who tend to dismiss Gao as a cultural renegade and a political defector, and diasporic critics, who view Gao as the most literary of heroic dissidents. The virtue of Yeung's treatment is that she reads Gao from a neutral standpoint, neither censorious nor adulatory. For her, Gao's corpus is worth reading as much to criticize and to understand as to admire. This is an invaluable (and uniquely unbiased) treatment of Gao. -- Eugene Eoyang, Chair Professor of Humanities, Lingnan University, Hong Kong
