Author
520 This compelling book, now in a thoroughly revised and
expanded anniversary edition, provides a vivid first-hand
account of the student demonstrations and violent
crackdown in Tiananmen Square in 1989. Uniquely placed as
a Western observer drawn into active participation through
Chinese friends in the uprising, Philip J Cunningham
offers a remarkable day-by-day account of Beijing students
desperately trying to secure the most coveted political
real estate in China in the face of ever-more daunting
government countermoves. He brings to life the story of
the demonstrations, from the tentative early marches to
the huge outpouring of support, from the hunger strikes
and jostling for influence among student leaders, to the
senseless bloody crackdown. This remarkable testament to a
searing Beijing spring that changed China forever serves
witness to the rise and fall of an uprising, capturing the
plaintive and lyrical beauty of a dream that endures and
continues to haunt the country today
