Description
Officially censored upon its original Chinese publication, this book is a deeply moving and beautifully written account of a blood-selling scandal in contemporary China. Hoping to lift their village from proverty, the town directors open blood-plasma collection stations, and though the citizens prosper in the short run, the result is an AIDS outbreak and huge loss of life. Based on a real-life event, and 3 years of undercover work, this book is a passionate and steely critique of the rate at which China is developing -- and what happens to those who get in the way.
