Description

This tells the story of the momentous and tragic weeks in China's Tiananmen Square in the spring of 1989. As press spokesman for the Democracy Movement, 23-year-old Li Lu was at the centre of the drama which captured the attention of the world. This book tells the author's story - one man' odyssey from a victim of the Cultural Revolution to a leader of hundreds of thousands of students. Li Lu escaped arrest after the events in Tianenmen Square, but remains on the list of China's "ten most wanted men". Since leaving China he has travelled widely on behalf of human rights and the Democracy Movement in China. - from Amzon
