Trade Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. First Edition. 328 Pages Indexed. April 1998 Edition. Tight bright book with no marks or stamps. In 1995, Chinese-born American citizen Harry Wu touched off an international incident when he was arrested in China for spying. As rumors swirled that Hillary Clinton's long-planned trip to Beijing depended on Wu's release, the world wondered: Who is this troublemaker? According to Wu, he is just one of thousands of nameless, faceless people who needlessly suffer and often die in the vast prison-labor system that is China's dirty little secret -- a secret that Wu has risked his life to reveal. Now, Harry Wu takes us on a soul-searching odyssey as he traces his bold effort to reenter China and expose its atrocities. We join him on covert trips to labor camps and to the hospitals where organs of executed prisoners sell for top dollar, witness the emotionally wrenching pilgrimages to the graves of persecuted friends and family, and, finally, brave the long months before his arrest when he feared the Chinese government might once and for all make a martyr of their number one troublemaker.

Hardcover. Condizione: Very good. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very good. Guenter Vollath (illustratore). viii, 328 pages. Illustrations. Endpaper maps. Index. Red dot on top edge. The author is one of the most prominent expatriate Chinese dissidents, whose Laogai Research Foundation publicizes abuses in the Chinese penal system. Harry Wu (February 8, 1937 April 26, 2016) was a Chinese-American human rights activist. He became a resident and citizen of the United States. In 1992, he founded the Laogai Research Foundation. Harry Wu was imprisoned for 19 years in 12 different camps mining coal, building roads, clearing land, and planting and harvesting crops. He was beaten, tortured and nearly starved to death, and witnessed the deaths of other prisoners from brutality, starvation, and suicide. During his first years in America, Wu did not want to discuss politics. He was drawn back into the discussion about prison camps in China and his own experiences. In 1986, Wu was asked discuss his experiences to a class at the University of California. Derived from a Kirkus review: World-famous dissident Wu gives a powerful expose of China's use of slave labor to produce export goods, as he describes his undercover visits to his homeland, including his detention last summer and its impact on Hillary Clinton's attendance at the United Nations Women's Conference in Beijing. In 1992, Wu, living in the United States, established the Laogai Research Foundation in order to expose China's sale of forced labor products on the international market. (Laogai is the Chinese gulag, where Wu himself spent 19 years in forced labor camps.) In this book his focus is on his highly dangerous trips back to China since 1991. He visited his old prison, Beijing No. 1 Laogai Camp, which is now known as a shrimp farm but is otherwise unchanged, and he and his wife, Ching Lee, managed to film the notorious Wangzhuang Coal Mine, where Wu had undergone `reform through labor' and nearly lost his life. Wu pretended to be an American businessman and obtained admissions that products were made by prisoners. On another visit, he entered a hospital and was told how expensive transplant operations for foreigners made use of organs taken from prisoners afterand even beforeexecution. The final part of Wu's narrative details his arrest and trial last year. Due to pressure from Congress and his American citizenship, he was relatively well treated and released after two months. He argues that dropping China's most favored nation status is the only way to change conditions inside the country; meanwhile, we are fooling ourselves by equating capitalism in China with democracy. Wu's moving and heroic story is essential reading for anyone concerned with the human rights struggle and its implications for public policy.
