 Red Dust: A Path Through China by Ma JianIn 1983, at the age of thirty, dissident artist Ma Jian found himself divorced from his wife, separated from his daughter, betrayed by his girlfriend, facing arrest for "Spiritual Pollution", and severely disillusioned with the confines of life in Bejiing. So with little more than a change of clothes, he took off to immerse himself in the remotest areas of China. His journey would last three years and take him through smog-choked cities and mountain villages, from scenes of barbarity to havens of tranquility. "Honest, raw and insightful...the Chinese equivalent of On the Road." --Time Paperback 324 pages - 5" x 8" - (11/02)
