About this product

Product Information

Aiping Mu was born to parents prominent in the Communist hierarchy - her father was Political Commissar for the Beijing region and her mother ran one of the city's universities - and in her early years lived the pampered life of the Party elite: luxury housing, guards, servants and private schooling. Both parents were considered intellectuals within the Party and from the start experienced the factional in-fighting and periodic purges which culminated decades later in the Cultural Revolution and the break-up of the family. Aiping herself was one of the first Red Guards before being denounced as a bourgeois intellectual and exiled to a remote province. Whilst following one family's rising and falling fortunes, this biography tells the story of modern China itself, written from the perspective of one who grew up close to the seat of power in history (whether as revolutionaries or Red Guard). With insights into the life of the political elite and the mechanics of power and patronage in Beijing, the focus is also upon more domestic issues such as the family and the role of women.

    This is one of the best wbay sellers I've come across. 15 books ordered, prices reasonable & fair, deliverd in record time, the items well packed to guarantee safe arrival, and the quality of the items as described, although I feel the seller may have UNDERSTATED the quality of some - they were much, much better than decribed. Also, the seller does NOT charge postage for orders within Australia. One of the best buying experiences I've had. I recommend linkmonk to any & all buyers. Exceptional!

    Came on time. Seller was good to talk to and responded quickly to my queries. The product itself came complete, exactly as described. Box and board were a bit scuffed but that was something I could see from the pics. Overall, very pleased with both the service and the product
