Rated To Live by Hua Yu 8/10

<div>It explores what it was like living through 4 decades of Chinese history, which I'm grateful for because it led me to dig deeper into the Great Chinese Famine and some other historical events. However, getting through the book took me time and effort. The book's title is 'To Live' but I would add 'with the most horrible luck'. The realization that human's existence is horrific and painful for many, many people is just disheartening. It didn't help that Fugui made so many mistakes which I guess is what makes him human.&nbsp;</div>
