Invisible Warfare : How Does a Book Defeat an Empire?, Hardback Book

Invisible Warfare : How Does a Book Defeat an Empire? Hardback

Hardback

Description

As a writer, poet, musician and dissident, Liao Yiwu is one of the most important chroniclers and analysts of contemporary China.

In his books, he draws on his own experiences of imprisonment and mistreatment at the hands of the Chinese state to criticise abuses of power and give a voice to the downtrodden and disenfranchised. In this powerful memoir, Liao Yiwu reflects on his own journey from imprisonment in Sichuan to his current life in Berlin, where he now works as a full-time writer.  As China’s presence and influence on the international stage grows, this small book is a poignant reminder of the human cost of authoritarianism and of the power of the written word to bear witness to evil.
