China's life and Cultural Revolution,
By
This review is from: Come Watch the Sun Go Home: A Memoir of Upheaval and Revolution in China (Paperback)
This book is a moving and important read! While the first 3rd of the book moves slow, with no real compeling story line, it provides incredible insight into the minutia of everyday life in China and the social, political, and cultural forces that influenced recent history there. Government control of property, freedom of speech, government deportations to work camps, and other humiliations, are stark reminders of the freedoms we need to protect in this country. In this country, with 100's of people currently being held, after 9/11, with no charges and no due process, and with the press being challenged in the courts, and propaganda routinely being spewed by our government, this book is a must read, and an important reminder of what is good in this country and what we must continually be vigilant to protect against.
