The book isn't overly historical though, instead remaining very personal and touching throughout.

The Little Red Guard : A Family Memoir Reviews Huang tells it with extraordinary candor, acuity, and the cruel irony of life. Lyrical and poignant, funny and heartrending, The Little Red Guard is the powerful tale of an ordinary family finding their way through turbulence and transition. I still avoid it at all cost. He also appointed his older son, Wenguang, as coffin keeper, a distinction that meant, among other things, sleeping next to the coffin at night. The details of her funeral consumed her. Is it wrong? I think this memoir set out to record a family history worth telling, but Huang fails miserably at creating a readable narrative. Again, none of that darkness associated with CR memoirs, though he mentions calamities that happened to other people. Mostly I was just amazed at the humble wisdom of Wenguang's relatives, especially his father, who seems to have had a sense of clarity about China's fickle political climate and cultural shifts. I enjoyed the traditional Chinese stories told in The Little Red Guard, as well as the personal histories and stories that Huang told about his family. Yuan-Tsung Chen.

Realizing parents is achieved by coming to terms with the dilemma of being caught between party shibboleths and spiritual beliefs. Thanks for telling us about the problem. In their zeal, the Red Guards destroyed much of China's cultural heritage. I didn't know much about the Chinese culture nor it's history and I still don't, but I found that I could relate to this book in a way that I never expected to. However, Grandmother is far from dying and eventually is troubled by the coffin residing so close to her. Whatever the number of dead, this kind of social turmoil had a terribly chilling effect on the intellectual and social life of the country, even worse to the leadership, it began to slow the economy. Baotown by Wang Anyi 3. Some aspects of traditional Chinese ceremonies are truly romantic. It includes the story of how his grandmother, who lived with the family, was determined to be buried instead of cremated when she died. The Chinese share an intensly and inherently familial trait that is undeniable. It put a huge strain on the family unit. When his mother died, the landlord killed the girl by putting mercury in her drink so that she could serve his mother in the afterworld.

    UCLA UCLA Pacific Basin Law Journal Title Rough Justice in Beijing: Punishing the "Black Hands" of Tiananmen Square Permalink https://escholarship.org/uc/item/7zz8w3wg Journal UCLA Pacific Basin Law Journal, 10(1) Author Munro, Robin Publication Date 1991 DOI 10.5070/P8101021984 Peer reviewed eScholarship.org Powered by the California Digital Library University of California ROUGH JUSTICE IN BEIJING* Punishing the "Black Hands" of Tiananmen Square Robin Munro** 1. INTRODUCTION During late spring and early summer, namely, from mid-April to early June of 1989, a tiny handful of people exploited student unrest to launch a planned, organized and premeditated political turmoil, which later developed into a counterrevolutionary rebel- lion in Beijing, the capital. Their purpose was to overthrow the leadership of the Chinese Communist Party and subvert the so- cialist People's Republic of China.... In order to achieve thorough victory, we should mobilize the people completely, strengthen the people's democratic dictator- ship and spare no effort to ferret out the counterrevolutionary rioters. We should uncover instigators and rebellious conspira- tors, punish the organizers and schemers of the unrest and the counterrevolutionary rebellion ...and focus the crackdown on a handful of principal culprits and diehards who refuse to repent.' (Chen Xitong, Mayor of Beijing, on June 30, 1989.) In late 1990, the Chinese government brought formal charges against several dozen of the most prominent leaders of the May- June 1989 Tiananmen Square pro-democracy movement. Trials held in the first two months of 1991 have resulted in sentences rang- ing from two to thirteen years for students and intellectuals.
