Praise for the first edition:
..". in the greattradition of Orwell and Solzhenitsyn; its true
subject is the survival -- andsometimes the defeat -- of the human
spirit in its lonely quest for integrity."-- Time
"The almost childlike directness of Chen's tales... iscaptured
in the very lightly revised translations of this new edition...
Highlyrecommended." -- Choice
A classic of modern world literature, thiscollection of stories
provides a vivid and poignant eyewitness view of everyday lifein
China during the Cultural Revolution. For this edition, Howard
Goldblatt hasthoroughly revised the text and updated it to Pinyin
romanization. In a newintroduction, Perry Link reflects on the
book's significance in the post-Tiananmenera. Twenty-five years
after its first publication, The Execution of Mayor Yin haslost
none of its power to move the reader, and remains unmatched as a
document ofthe period.
