Berättelser Om Yunnan
I mitten av 1960-talet svepte kulturrevolutionen genom Kina och förändrade tillvaron för ett otal liv. En hel generation stadsfödda ungdomar skickades till landsbygden för att ideologiskt omskolas genom fysiskt arbete under sina mest formativa år. Emei Burell har skapat denna seriebok om sin mammas historia i kulturrevolutionens Kina. Det är en vindlande berättelse om hur en tonårsflicka från Beijing lyckades bli en av de ytterst få kvinnor som fick ansvaret att köra lastbil högt uppe i bergen i södra Kinas gummiplantage.
