SUMMARY
"And yet, something large, hard to define is missing from Na's brisk, professional, conceptually self-sealing account: there is an aching hole at its very center, an oppressive absence....There is nothing, or almost nothing, of individual feelings and personal judgments, of hopes, fears, dissents, and resistances, of fantasy, remorse, pride, humor, loss, or disappointment....We are left with a compact, well-arranged world of rules, institutions, customs, and practices: a 'kinship system.'"Hua, Cai is the author of 'Society Without Fathers or Husbands The Na of China' with ISBN 9781890951122 and ISBN 1890951129.
