When I come across a new book I really want to read, by an author I haven't read before, I often try and read one of their earlier books first (I'm not sure why).
Xiaolu Guo's I Am China is wonderful - covering language, politics and culture across multiple countries and continents, and yet deeply personal and very touching.
