Author: Ian Buruma ★★★
Don't be fooled by The China Lover's
title – it's not really about the Middle
Kingdom at all. Instead, this novel's
main concern is Japan, and its changing
attitudes towards China, the
West, and itself. This shifting focus,
together with academic and author
Ian Buruma's polymath intelligence,
means that very little about The China
Lover is straightforward. Its central
character is an enigma: Yoshiko
Yamaguchi, the Sino-Japanese actress
who, as "Ri Koran", was used as a
propaganda tool by the Japanese during
their occupation of China, before
she metamorphosed into Hollywood's "Shirley Yamaguchi" and
later a member of Japan's parliament. To complicate matters
further, her story is told by not one, but three male narrators,
who have little in common other than their outsider status. The
China Lover covers an awful lot of intellectual ground, exploring
not just gender, national identity and Orientalism, but even
anti-Semitism and armed resistance in Palestine. Buruma could
never be accused of lacking ambition, but might he be too clever
for his own good? Not necessarily – although his latest work
is perhaps too clever for the good of readers expecting anything
resembling a conventional novel.
