Description:
New York, NY, U.S.A.: Random House, 1988. Trade Paperback. Near Fine. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. A Chinese-speaking foreigner could live several lives in China and never hear what these two young Chinese journalists have packed into their book. All the Chinese world is here, in its poverty, energy, envy, brutality. China seen through the eyes of its people - over 60 startling voices - talking about the ordinary and extraordinary events in their lives make up this book. "This is oral history at its finest. Zhang Xinxin and Sang Ye's interviews have a way of striking at the heart of the matter, revealing to us the cast of characters who live beneath the rouged-up surface of Chinese society as portrayed in the official press. Done with wit and insight, 'Chinese Lives' is a joy to read." 367 pages.Prev. owners name and date on Ffep. Red remainder marker line on top gilt, (top edge of book)..
