Ich schreibe das Review auf Englisch, denn wer das nicht versteht, wird auch an dem Buch wenig Freude.I consider this a must-read for anyone interested in the history of Burma in the 20th centuries. Particularly in the first part of the book, the author balances the story of her family (and later herself) with the broader picture in an amazingly skillful manner. We learn about the specific challenges of her family of Chinese and Anglo-Burman descent, but we also learn how this was connected to politics of the British Empire and of Burma itself. The story of how her father built "The Nation" is certainly inspiring for anyone working in media, but it is also a little microcosmos which reflects the political climate. Most impressive, perhaps, is how Wendy Law-Yone succeeds in portraying the events that led to the dictatorship under the junta in a very neutral manner. So far, most accounts I've read or heard were highly ideological. Not so "Golden Parasol". Wendy Law-Yone portrays a democratic government that was weak and corrupt and generals who initially seemed to have good intentions. And she also does not neglect to emphasize that some things did improve once the military took over. She also does not romanticize the junta. They were/are bad. The book is a warning to all those, who believe that "a heavy hand" is the way to go.From what I hear, the book is also very popular in Burma (the only book of the author that has been translated), precisely for this reason. It gives not only us Western readers but also Burmese readers a uniquely balanced perspective into a troubled period.

Golden Parasol is a memoir of a newspaperman's daughter who deftly weaves her present life with her early upbringing and then manages to capture her father's exciting story in a unique way as she edits his manuscript begun during five years in the infamous Insein Prison. His is a fresh perspective of Burma's turbulent history as seen by an insider who wanted it to turn out differently. Part family detective, the author didn't give up in her search for unearthing her roots. Lucky for us that both father and daughter are excellent observers and writers.

I bought this book because I wanted to know more about what happened in Burma, whenI lived there and after I left. Some of the terrible killings that took place on the 8888I had heard about, and seen on TV. But never knew it was that bad,Our family left in 1964 and came to Australia, it was the best thing we ever did,as things were getting worse in Burma.After reading Golden Parasol I feel better informed aboutwhat happened in Burma.The Law Yone family must have had a terrible time when theirDad was taken away. Her poor Mother, and not forgetting howShe and her brother were also jailed.I enjoyed reading the book, it was entertaining and informative. I learntabout our country.My Father like Wendy's loved Burma, he would have preferred to stayIn Burma, But Mum and the rest if us wanted to leave. It was nota safe place any more.We stayed a many places mentioned in the book. Myitchina , Bhamo,Mongyu, Namkan.Both Mum and I were in Dr Seagraves hospital. Mum had two majorOperations, and I was there for one month a very sick little girl.Thanks for the book Wendy.

Ed Law-Yone was the proprietor of The National In Burma 1962 while there was a military coup. His daughter Wendy Law-Yone was left with the manuscript of his father's auto-biography and asked to tell his story. Golden Parasol is the memoir of the daughter of a Burmese journalist, political prisoner and revolutionary and follows her memories of her father, imprisonment and escape from the country.I'm not much of a non-fiction reader, as much as I try, and while this isn't a topic that interests me, I'm still glad to have read it. Wendy Law-Yone is a novelist and her memoir of her father's life reads like a novel which really helped me to get through this book I don't know much about Burma (now known as Myanmar) but now I know a little about the coup in 1962 (also suspect a CIA conspiracy).Ed Law-Yone seemed to be a complex and colourful character, and if his daughter makes you question his character a little bit, chances are there was something off about him. What he did in the effort to bring democracy to Burma was extraordinary but that doesn't mean he was a good man. I got the sense that Wendy was a little angry towards him. I'm not saying that he was a bad man but reading between the lines maybe there was a little bit of bitterness between the two; maybe a little neglect or annoyance towards all the time she spent at the newspaper.When I read a memoir or biography (what's the difference?) I tend to take what is written with a little grain of salt. I try to work out what might have been left out; I just wonder what secrets lay behind the writing. I really like how chapter 2 started, with some text from Ed's manuscript and Wendy's comments in-between (almost a little playful or sarcastic) and was a little disappointed that this tactic was abandoned but I think that would have made for a more difficult read.Golden Parasol may not be the type of book I normally pick up and I didn't think I would enjoy this one. I was interested in the narrative and how easy the author made this to read. I'm glad to have read this one, it wasn't fantastic but it was an interesting insight. My struggle with non-fiction continues, I think I would be better off reading topics I'm interested in instead of something like Golden Parasol.

I've long been a fan of Wendy Law-Yone, whose beautifully written novels and essays provide tantalizing snatches of insight into her fascinating family and their Burma connection. I've hoped that she would write a memoir to flesh out their story, and am delighted that Golden Parasol has finally arrived! It is a wholly satisfying chronicle--often poetic and always artfully constructed. Law-Yone is a skillful story-teller with a captivating tale to tell. Her father--adventurer, fearless publisher, determined revolutionary, and sometimes challenging family man--makes for terrific material, and Law-Yone uses it all to great advantage. She recounts her father's, and her family's, ups and downs with such humor and pathos that this reader feels that she has come to know the entire Law-Yone clan. A great bonus of reading Golden Parasol is the insight gained into Burma, a country about which most know so little. There are few writers who can give a personal account of Burma's very "heartbeat," and Wendy Law-Yone is likely the best. This is a book that delights in the reading and offers plenty to ponder when the last page has been turned.
