In Wild Grass, Pulitzer Prize--winning journalist Ian Johnson tells
the stories of three ordinary Chinese citizens moved to
extraordinary acts of courage: a peasant legal clerk who filed a
class-action suit on behalf of overtaxed farmers, a young architect
who defended the rights of dispossessed homeowners, and a bereaved
woman who tried to find out why her elderly mother had been beaten
to death in police custody. Representing the first cracks in the
otherwise seamless facade of Communist Party control, these small
acts of resistance demonstrate the unconquerable power of the human
conscience and prophesy an increasingly open political future for
China.
