Read this a couple of months ago, but forgot to record it until now. Maybe it reflects what I thought of it. I find this deviation from her previous style of writing too clever and a chore to read, though the story is interesting enough. Based on a true story, Bibi Chen, San Francisco socialite and art vendor to the stars, plans to lead a trip for 12 to China & Myanmar, but dies in very strange circumstances before the tour begins. The group decides to go after all, with an indecisive and epileptic leader. Bibi is the disembodied narrator. The group gets kidnapped by a deluded tribe. It was hard to get into this book.
