Reactions.
I like this novel, it's full of lots of imagery that you can picture in your mine as you read the story. Some strange factor in this book is that you can not say anything negative about Mao in a sentence or you will get punish. One thing the surprise me was from the beginning of the story, the people in the village didn't know what a Violin was. Another thing that surprise me was the punishment peopel go through for saying something bad about Mao. The imagery that describe the punishment is brutal.
