''Illuminating ... Johnson has not only lifted a corner of the curtain which covers China''s reality beyond its glittering eastern cities; he has drawn the whole curtain'' The Times Literary Supplement
In Wild Grass, Pulitzer Prize-winning Ian Johnson describes a China caught between the desire for change percolating up from below and the ossified political structure above. He recounts the stories of three ordinary people who find themselves finding oppression and government corruption, risking imprisonment and even death. A young architecture student, a bereaved daughter, and a peasant legal clerk are the unlikely heroes of these stories, private citizens cast by unexpected circumstances into surprising roles.
