Is this book only in mandarin? No english version?
The book is in English. A Chinese edition is to be published at the beginning of June. Ipigott (talk) 10:35, 17 May 2009 (UTC)
Banned?
[edit]Am I getting the idea that this book should be banned in China, or did they allow it? Dengero (talk) 11:01, 18 May 2009 (UTC)
- Never heard about this officially yet. But I will bet a million dollars that for now the Chinese government would not even mention this book. Of course it would be banned. But it will be published in China in my life time, hopefully. --Mongol (talk) 04:57, 19 May 2009 (UTC)
- Adi Ignatius, one of the editors of the English language edition, told the Guardian that although the book is certain to be banned on the mainland, he believed some of its content would spread through the internet or bootleg editions.
