Beijing: The New Forbidden City Summary
| Skya was a student in Beijing for thirteen days leading up to and following the Tiananmen Massacre. Her story is one of the grief and horror she felt in the face of brutal death, and the helplessness of a people imprisoned by a government purportedly devoted to them. Perhaps more poetic, conclusively more passionate than journalistic accounts of the tragedy of Tiananmen Square which centered around political analyses, this personal odyssey simultaneously steeps us in Chinese culture as it plunges us into the depths of human experience. A vivid, spellbinding and hopeful note that makes the heart cry. |
