Beautiful! Reminds me of some of the things I loved about BJ.

Btw the link for your events in Shanghai, Hangzhou etc is broken. I’m near Hangzhou so would love to make that one if I can!

Thank you! And sorry about the link, fixed that — should have been: https://anthonytao.com/readings

Please do come by if you get the chance, I'll be at the Xihu District bookstore 纯真年代书吧 (宝石山店) in Hangzhou on Wed, June 12, 7 pm. (Entry price is a one-drink purchase, I think.)

Your newsletter gives me a glimpse and reminder of Beijing, which I visited many times years ago thanks to work.

I'm the same with Kuala Lumpur, I acknowledge that it is flawed but bristle when foreigners make assertions about the city. Must be our deeply held value of never insulting a city where you're a guest at, and the annoyance when someone does. ;)

Thank you. I was in Kuala Lumpur in December, and thought it was lovely (though spent more time in Georgetown). Miss the food dearly.
