Chapter 12: The Last Gate Under Heaven

pg 284: he is very good at describing people - he has to be, since he meets so many

his retelling of his time with the grieving old Wang is so moving it drove me insane contemplating death and the afterlife

visits a family bearing a gift - he has done this before but does explain why

surprisingly abrupt ending - no reflection, just the end as he gazes around him at the end of the Great Wall
