Cries of Joy, Songs of Sorrow: Chinese Pop Music and Its Cultural Connotations
Marc L. Moskowitz
Taiwan's unique brand of Mandopop has dictated the musical tastes of the mainland and the rest of Chinese-speaking Asia. This book explores Mandopop's complex cultural implications in Taiwan and the PRC, where it has established new gender roles, created a vocabulary to express individualism, and introduced transnational culture to a country that had closed its doors to the world for twenty years.
