Mao Zedong, leader of the revolution and absolute chairman of the People’s Republic of China, was also a calligrapher and a poet of extraordinary grace and eloquent simplicity. The poems in this beautiful edition (from the 1963 Beijing edition), translated and introduced by Willis Barnstone, are expressions of decades of struggle, the painful loss of his first wife, his hope for a new China, and his ultimate victory over the Nationalist forces. Willis Barnstone’s introduction, his short biography of Mao and brief history of the revolution, and his notes on Chinese versification all

Long described as lost, this report was the result of Mao Zedong’s investigation in 1930 of the people, economy, society, and history of the obscure rural county of Xunwu in South China. An extraordinary document that far exceeds in scope and depth Mao’s other investigative reports on rural China. The report is a rich source of information on rural administration, commerce, transportation, communication, education, land tenure, taxation, religion, diverse social relations and practices and struggle in one obscure area that was a microcosm of China.

In this dazzling new series, philosopher and cultural critic Slavoj Zizek interrogates key writings on revolution.These early philosophical writings underpinned the Chinese revolutions and their clarion calls to insurrection remain some of the most stirring of all time. Drawing on a dizzying array of references from contemporary culture and politics, Zizek’s firecracker commentary reaches unsettling conclusions about the place of Mao’s thought in the revolutionary canon."Communism is not love. Communism is a hammer, which we use to crush the enemy."—Mao Zedong

Mao Zedong (1893-1976) went from being a poor farmer’s son to a revolutionary leader, a general in World War II and the ruler of the world’s most populous nation. Alternately glorified and demonized, not only in the Western world, but in the China that he once ruled, his influence persists to this day. This new biography will capitalize on new information that has recently come to light about his private life (and his several wives), with the publication of memoirs by his doctor and former nurse, among others. It will also reach bookstores with time to spare before the Beijing Olympics in
