Son of the Revolution

Description

Liang Heng was born in 1954 in Changsha, a large city in Central China. His parents were intellectuals-his father a reporter on a major provincial newspaper, his mother a ranking cadre in the local police. This is Liang Heng's own story of growing up in the turmoil of the Great Cultural Revolution. His story is unique, but at the same time it is in many ways typical of those millions of young Chinese who have been tested almost beyond endurance in recent years. In his words we hear an entire generation speaking. ISBN:9780394722740
