In 1957, Changshou Lake was designated as a place of laogai (reform through heavy labour; http: \/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Laogai）and more than six hundred intellectuals (the so-called \"Rightists\"; http: \/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Anti-Rightist_Movement) were sent under escort into the islands. They then started their prisoners' life as long as 22 years and more than one hundred of them were persecuted to death. The author of the book 《Changshou Lake》interviewed about one hundred survivors of Changshou Lake and truly recorded the jeremiad that is about to be flooded by time. 《Changshou Lake》 is a vivid but heart-breaking oral history. From it, people can get to know those \"Rightist\" sufferings, understand the truth of the anti-rightist movement by the Communist Party of China in 1957 and learn the absurdity and cruelty of that era. Now nearly half of the survived Rightists in the book have passed away. *Changshou means: long life.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Song Tan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Trafford Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/09\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 540\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.57lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 1.09d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781426989407\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e Chinese\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Trafford Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45522296111219,"sku":"9781426989407","price":37.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/files\/img_d494a8d2-7d79-43d4-b31e-6bd8d9e5e170.jpg?v=1789733375","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/en-de\/products\/changshou-lake-true-story-of-former-rightists-at-changshou-lake-chongqing-of-china-in-1957-9781426989407","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
