		Liu's heroine, Huang Haha writes down her memories, a "ragbag of half-told stories, half-formed ideas and half-remembered incidents," which nonetheless seem more vivid and real than life in cold, gray, bland London.
		Following her father's death in custody, Haha's household was headed by her mother and "Auntie," a family friend who instilled in Haha a love of traditional Chinese opera, and quotations from these operas, along with nursery rhymes, revolutionary songs and Chinese and Western pop songs appear throughout.
		Liu's work, yet to be published in China, offers an unusual glimpse into an unusual world.

		This is a literate novel, rich with references to Chinese and Western literature, that asks how to preserve the soul of a civilization in the face of inexorable modernization and explores the divided consciousness of the individual expatriate.
		Actually, she both adopts her heroine Huang Haha's persona to loosely tell in the first person a story of growing up during the Cultural Revolution and retreats to the third person to observe Haha as she writes of her childhood while now living as an adult in London.
		Liu packs Haha's story with fascinating detail, but more compelling is her writing style--bold, confident, as artistically complex as a cubist painting or a jazz riff.

	Haunts - Liu Sola - Music Reviews
		Liu Sola's unforgettable singing style, which can range from freeform vocalizing and animated nonsensical emoting that make Yoko Ono look reserved by comparison to simple folk-like melodies, is DEFINITELY an acquired taste.
		But her sophomore solo release is easily her most compelling and accessible album to date -- an artsy outing on which she largely eschews traditional Chinese traditions in favor of an evocative sound so joyously original it's almost impossible to resist.
		True to its title, this is a haunting, stripped-to-the-bones album, with varying moods and methods that show Sola exercising considerable restraint.

		Haunts, the third US album by the New York-based Chinese experimental singer Liu Sola, is a wild musical journey that sounds both primitive and futuristic.
		The album starts off with "Daddy's Chair," a nine-minute piece combining oriental melodies, laced with Liu's blues piano, Liu's solo vocals are in otherworldly, a faraway child-like ambience which is between Bjork and Enya.
		Liu's cat-like wailing and shrieks (a little on the Yoko Ono side) are complimented well with Amina's soulful, warbling scat.

	Bill Laswell Discography (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		Though far too unusual for casual world music fans, this collaboration between eclectic Chinese vocalist Liu Sola and Wu Man, a master of the Chinese lute (or pipa), is definitely an intriguing listen for those unafraid of more avant-garde musical fusions.
		As the plucked pipa melodies set the musical mood with styles that range from the traditional to the contemporary, Sola's voice goes from piercing howl to soulful moan to gentle croon, never losing an ounce of its power in the process.
		The opening "Festivals" is far from easy listening, with a caterwauling vocal style that could send Yoko Ono running for cover, but "Love" is a gorgeous ballad whose mood perfectly matches its title.

		The rare Liu Sola record that does not feature frequent collaborator Wu Man, Apparitions is a more contemporary, Western-influenced album than much of her recent work would lead you to expect.
		A typically revolutionary Liu Sola album, Spring Snowfall places her challenging compositions in the nimble hands of Wu Man, master of the harp-like Chinese pipa.
		At times almost excruciatingly beautiful, at other times frustratingly difficult, the album is meant to convey the depth of expression of Chinese ink painting -- at times "wild and rough like an ink splash," at others "extremely fine and detailed like fine brushwork." The results are jarring, but ultimately effective, moving from past… Read More »
