The Real Story of Ah-Q and Other Tales of China by Lu Xun still. I'm on the second collection, titled Hesitation, now. There are fewer in this section that leave me as ecstatic or thoughtful as the first, but! They are still pretty great.

Great. I'm actually glad I read it after 100 Years of Solitude, enjoyed it far more but it helped as far as understanding the Mexican character better. I haven't studied Latin American history since high school, so I'm a little rusty on all the revolutionaries, but the ideas regarding culture are more enlightening than anything else I've read. Actually got me considering following through on my Anthro major.
