   Is Dirk Struan a Tai-Pan?

   • Oh, Dirk Struan is the Tai-pain. The Tai-pan as the reader is reminded seeming every two pages. Gagfest. I hate it when women are characterized as high-strung purebred horses - Clavell does this explicitly in this book in at least one scene, and implies it in others. Hasn't the "hot tempered but sexy" lover motif been worn out by now?
