Description
The Unceasing Storm: Memories of the Chinese Cultural Revolution
Katherine Luo's memoir is a powerful account of her experiences during China's tumultuous Cultural Revolution. In 1955, she moved to mainland China from Hong Kong to study drama and opera, hoping to contribute to the country's development. However, her capitalist class origins and overseas connections made her an outsider, leading to a series of personal struggles and injustices.
This book is also a testament to the human cost of the Cultural Revolution, which saw millions of people persecuted, imprisoned, or killed. Luo's story is just one of many, but it sheds light on the experiences of ordinary people who were caught up in the chaos and upheaval of that era.
