Kurze Inhaltsangabe
Panda Sex erzählt von einer Gruppe junger Leute um das Schwesternpaar Mei Mei und Jie Jie. Zwei Tage und Nächte lang durchstreifen sie die Shanghaier Party- und Clubszene und philosophieren dabei über die Liebe, Beziehungen, Geschlechterrollen und Sex. Gerade erst haben die Freunde ihren langjährigen Gefährten Little Beetle zu Grabe getragen. Dort, bei der Beerdigung, sollen sie sich infiziert haben mit dem Panda-Virus. Pandas haben nur zweimal im Jahr Sex. Den Figuren im Roman geht es ähnlich, sie suchen Nähe, sind süchtig nach echter Begegnung und können Sex doch nur mit Fremden haben.… (plus d'informations)

I liked the writing style, and I wanted to like the book, but it felt like a jumbled-up collection of various stories and ideas, some of which were interesting and some of which were not. In other words, I wouldn’t say I liked the book, but I liked parts of it.

Mian Mian has been labelled as a 'poster child for spiritual pollution.' But she's so much more than that. (Even though I think that title is quite a spectacular one.)

This book is a cornerstone for modern Chinese literature - it’s gritty, it’s raw, it’s open. The main character, Hong is a very vulnerable young woman who experiments with drugs and tries to find her place in Shanghai during the 80’s and 90’s.

I thought it was really well-written even though it was in a style I wasn’t exactly accustomed to. I really appreciated her frank, honest description of drugs, drug use and how drugs can affect relationships.

She was a very good introduction to Chinese literature for me, as she spoke a lot about the culture and a particular generation of people I knew didn’t know a lot about.

I loved this book. And I'm waiting to find a seller that will ship her next book to me. c:

Well.. It was an interesting book for sure. I wouldn't say it blew me away or shocked me (maybe I am desensitized, or maybe I expected too much of it), but it was ok. The repetitive self indulgence of the main character (the narrator - Hong) was at times seriously annoying, but if you have patience to get through it, you're rewarded with a beautiful language and a refreshing glimpse into Chinese counterculture.
