Wuhan
Polity Press (Verlag)
978-1-5095-6299-2 (ISBN)
In this startlingly topical documentary novel, Liao Yiwu takes us into the heart of the crisis that unfolded in Wuhan and unpicks the secrecy and cover-up that surrounded the outbreak of the public health emergency that ravaged the world. Where did the virus come from and what happened in Wuhan? Protocols are buried and new lies cement the story of the party's heroic victory - propaganda that poisons people like the virus.
Also available as an audiobook.
Liao Yiwu is a Chinese writer living in Berlin.
