Download or read book China Dream written by Ma Jian and published by Catapult. This book was released on 2020-06-09 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Blending fact and fiction, this darkly comic fable “may be the purest distillation yet of Mr. Ma’s talent for probing the country’s darkest corners and exposing what he regards as the Communist Party’s moral failings” (Mike Ives, The New York Times). Called “Red Guards meet Kurt Vonnegut . . . powerful!" by Margaret Atwood on Twitter, China Dream is an unflinching satire of totalitarianism. Ma Daode, a corrupt and lecherous party official, is feeling pleased with himself. He has an impressive office, three properties, and multiple mistresses who text him day and night. After decades of loyal service, he has been appointed director of the China Dream Bureau, charged with replacing people's private dreams with President Xi Jinping's great China Dream of national rejuvenation. But just as he is about to present his plan for a mass golden wedding anniversary celebration, his sanity begins to unravel. Suddenly plagued by flashbacks of the Cultural Revolution, Ma Daode's nightmare visions from the past threaten to destroy his dream of a glorious future. Exposing the damage inflicted on a nation's soul when authoritarian regimes, driven by an insatiable hunger for power, seek to erase memory, rewrite history, and falsify the truth, China Dream is a dystopian vision of repression, violence, and state–imposed amnesia that is set not in the future, but in China today.

Download or read book Chinese Central Asia written by Sir Clarmont Percival Skrine and published by . This book was released on 1926 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chinese Central Asia written in the 1920s is an interesting travelogue of the journey undertaken overland to Chinese Turkistan through the Karakoram Mountains and Passes, by C P Skrine the then British Consular General to Chinese Turkistan. Our journey starts in dusty Quetta on the borders of Iran. It is a story of the times when the main form of travel was on horse back or on foot. The luxury of road or air travel was not available to those who wished to travel to the more out-of-the-way regions of the world at that time. This opportunity to travel was so inviting to both the author and his wife that he jumped at the chance to visit this region. The author leaves no stone unturned to complete his tour and to give us a vivid description of his travels in this remote region. In his introduction Younghusband makes a very pertinent statement when he says that our impression of the unchanging belief in the unchangeable east is shattered by the bowler hatted Chinese representative who meets our travellers. Our author takes us to many places in his journey and each step gives us a vivid idea of the vistas and ways of the people of that time. His travels awake an interest in all of us who have the wanderlust and a desire to visit distant places in this world.
