──Love is not a question of who hurts whom, but that we are all murdered by this era.
——And this journey for him and her may really be the last feast of their lives.
──This political party and system itself is the biggest and most evil virus.
──He has been going against the tide in this absurd era, and has been trying to redeem himself at the risk of death.
──Our generation must leave our children a country where terror is no longer a reality.

"In the memories of the Chinese, too many secrets have been deliberately glossed over to create chapters of 'prosperity'. Growing up, I witnessed how the bloodshed of countless families often dissipated like smoke, not to mention the annals of a nation, which is filled with countless concealments and erasures. Countless rebels were not only killed in battle; even more tragically, their once courageous spirit was snuffed out from the annals of history. I often heard more stories of broken bones and torn flesh from the mouths of ordinary people I met in taverns and teahouses. The deep snow buried too many innocent people; tragedies that cannot be recorded in books and manuscripts are thus wasted on the loess mound." - Ye Fu

Features of this book

Ye Fu's definitive book explores the destruction of nation and humanity in China since the second half of the Cultural Revolution. It chronicles the portraits, history, and spirit of rebels under a reign of terror, and takes aim at the names of the victims of the Tiananmen Square Massacre and the untouchable dark side of the coronavirus. He fearlessly exposes the pathogenic nature of the Chinese Communist regime as nothing less than the most toxic of all. This is a masterful work that interweaves politics with love, sex and death, revolution, and faith.
