As far as personal accounts of Colonialist China from the British perspective, Denton Welsh's avatar here, a gay teen who just wants to paint and experience new things, is about as inoffensive as you could hope for. Still a strange to voyage into this severely patronizing and xenophobic system, but it's good that such a sensorially dense record exists.
