Unclipped DJ has creases on front and rear flyleaf, no tears, no chipping. - - - This excellent book by Canadian poet, artist and author Douglas Fetherling is an account of a grueling trek across Russia and through China to Bangkok, concluding with an inside look at one of the refugee camps in Hong Kong. It's a story rich in incident and telling description. But it is also a startling document that freezes for inspection a starting point in modern political history - the spring of 1990, when the rise of democracy transformed the Soviet Union, and resistance to democracy revealed the soul of the People's Republic of China. . Hardcover with Dust-Jacket.
