Joel A reviewed A map of betrayal by Ha Jin
Review of 'A map of betrayal' on 'Goodreads'
3 stars
Eh. It got good reviews, but it felt a bit schematic on the plot. Perhaps because I felt like it fell in the genre of spy novels, but neither fulfilled the conventions of the genre or exploded them successfully. It did prove an interesting meditation on the ability of an immigrant to remain loyal to both China and America.
