Beschreibung:
DR, a young Chinese man growing up through the political turmoil at the eve of and during the Cultural Revolution, faces forces fighting against the pursuit of such knowledge and more. As his family is persecuted for their intellectualism, his aspiration for college education is denied; as the ideological purging sweeps the nation, his pursuit of truth and higher understanding never wavers. This pursuit of truth continues into DR's adult life as he emigrates to the United States, encountering a society with fewer ideological limitations, but one that offers new complexities and worldviews to grapple with ranging from capitalism to middle class, from liberalism to conservatism, from democracy to human civilization. As DR ages, readers are given deep insight into his rich interior life of political and philosophical contemplation.
