Brew up a nice cup of tea and find a comfy armchair, it's time for another special edition of ChinaTalk. In this episode, Stanford University graduate student Vivian Zhong tells the story of her grandfather's life, from his childhood in the early days of the People's Republic to today pieced together from conversations they've shared over the years.
She talks about:
What it was like being a student in provincial China
Days long trips down the Yangtze
Why you shouldn't date in college
How her grandfather came to hate sweet potatoes
Outro music: Pengyou 朋友 by Emil Chau 周华健
