Kirkus Reviews
«Thanks to the persuasive power of its humane and humorous author, Our Story is as hard to resist as the great, rich, rambling serial narratives of the oral storytellers who travelled from one Chinese village to another»
Hilary Spurling, The Spectator
«His pictures tell expressively of his talent for observation but also of his capacity for happiness… A wonderful book, full of energy and curiosity»
Muriel Zagha, Elephant
