Articoli correlati a Everything is Broken
On May 2, 2008, an enormous tropical cyclone made landfall in Burma. The cyclone wreaked untold havoc, but the regime, in an unfathomable decision of near-genocidal proportions, blocked international aid from entering the country, and provided little relief themselves. Emma Larkin, who has been traveling to and secretly reporting on Burma for years, managed to arrange for a tourist visa in those frenzied days and arrived to chaos. Hundreds of thousands of Burmese citizens lacked food, drinking water, and basic shelter. In "Everything is Broken", Larkin not only exposes the extent of the damage, but provides a singular portrait of the generals responsible for compounding the tragedy, examining in revealing detail the historical, religious, and superstitious setting that created Burma's tenacious and brutal dictatorship.

Descrizione libro 8vo. Softcover. 265pp. near fine. A devasating and eye-opening account of life under the world's most brutal dictatorship. On May 2, 2008, a massive tropical cyclone made landfall in Burma. It wreaked untold havoc, but the ruling generals, in an unfathomable decision of near genocidal proportions, blocked international aid from entering the country and provided little relief themselves. Emaa Larkin, who has been travelling to and secretly reporting on Burma for years, managed to arrange a visa in those frenzied days and arrived to find chaos. Hundreds of thousands of Burmese citizens had no food, drinking water or basic shelter. In this book, Emma not only exposes the extent of the damage and the regime's bungled attempts to cover up the disaster, but also provides a singular portrait of the generals responsible for compounding the tragedy, examining in revealing detail the historical, religious and cultural setting that created Burma's tenacious and brutal dictatorship.
